Hi! I'm trying to make a ribbon using
Hi! I'm trying to make a ribbon using the quick pipe tool. I can make it with 2 sides, which effectively creates a ribbon, but I'd like it to have some height. Is there any way to achieve this? Thanks!

Hello, unfortunately there is no "extrude" option directly in Quick Pipe, but would be a nice addition to have. For now I suggest to maybe get the base mesh with the tool, and then use the modeling tools to achieve that. I know would not be procedural anymore, but maybe can be a decent workaround until we add it?
Thanks, I'll try it. Looking forward for that addition. 🙂 Just for you to have an idea of what I'm aiming at, when I used Vue I used thick ribbons like in this image, that I made a few years ago. I was trying to go to a similar effect in UE.

I know the thickness effect is subtle. but details matter in these things. 🙂
Or maybe a more radical approach in this one I also made: https://www.deviantart.com/arthurblue/art/The-Sunflower-Roads-437319517
