Good morning everyone,
first, sorry for my english.

I need to retrieve curves generated by "tree branch generator node"
I just want to apply a "sweep node" to create a rectangle on each of my curves.

the problem is that the generated rectangles are not aligned at all, they orient in different axes and i can't do anything with that.
can someone help me, explain me how to do so that I can create a clean rectangle for each of my curves and that all the rectangles are oriented on the same axis?

I tried to erase the normals, modify them, but I can't do anything with the curves..
I don't understand curves.

I send you a .hip demo for you to understand well.

Thanks for reading me.

Bests regards

You can apply orientation along curve and set target up vector to Y-Axis

@edit: in fact you can do the same in the sweep node aswell
