Hi d4rkheart,
I think the problem is that the perspective path is backwards. Try Path menu > Reverse.
Or if that doesn't work, make sure that you drew the perspective path properly -- start in the lower left corner, and draw clockwise.

If neither of those work, someone else may know. Or I could investigate further, depending on who is around when you reply :D

No worries. I only knew to suggest that because I've done it so many times myself, lol.
You're welcome :D

eeeeerrrrrrrr this thing doesn't give me predictable results, it keeps twisting my stuff around is strange ways, at least until I can figure out what's going on

does it matter which node is the first one?

back to the "lab"
