Here it is.
While your graph does connect up the shape extrusion, I think I didn't explain myself correctly.
The goal was to get a single extruded mesh (a continuous 'guard rail') to align to the edge of another shape extrusion ('track'). If I change the control point on the spline for the 'track', the 'guard rail' will follow on the new edge of the road accordingly. Volume Spots do this for descrete 'pole' that will hold up the 'guard rail' but Volume Spots can't be used for the 'guard rail' as it would break apart on many changes to the 'track''s spline.
I use the "Scake:X Multiplier" of the 'track's Shape Extrusion to control the 'track's width as per an earlier suggestion from you. What I am attempting to do is use the new 8.0.3 Deform Mesh feature's Scale to have the single 'guard rail' extrusion follow the edge of the 'track'. Of course I am passing in the same 'graph' to both 'X Multiplier' setting.
Can this work? If so, can you show me a graph? If not, is there a better way?
