Spline path "Range" option: how to go from end to start CP?
#3

You are indeed pointing out a limitation in the Input Spline Path module. But it should not be a problem, since you can define the range in the Shape Extrusion module too: First, remove the Range parameters you inputted in the Input Spline Path module, then use the Range and Length options in the Shape Extrusion module, under its Path tab.
Did this help?

Ok, got it. I knew about the range, and it is indeed a way to do it, but the issue is that it's not as flexible. As I tweak the shape of my spline, moving CPs around, using the path range continues working as expected. Whereas if I have to use the range on the extrusion node, I would have to constantly change the range value as I move CPs.

I think what I'll do for now is add an extra CP and move it very close to the first one.

Anyway, if it's not a hard tech limitation to overcome, it'd be nice to support that feature, even if I have to check a checkbox to explicitly have the range join with the origin CP.

Amazing tool btw. I just got a good grasp on how to handle complex UVs today and it's pretty well done.
