In this tips and tricks tutorial we're going to look at the different ways segments can be deformed on the Z-Axis. In addition to the default behaviour - in which the segment adapts to follow the tangent of the path - It is also possible to step segments or deform them so that their verticals remain upright, but horizontal elements follow the spline. A hybrid stepped/vertical option is also possible to maintain a flat area measured from either the top or bottom of the segment, as in the example below. Using these techniques we can create complex structures like railings and balustrades, or even a complete staircase.

By completing this tutorial you will be able to:

overlap adjacent segments using Padding.

change a segments alignment positions.

use vertical deform modes.
