Hi, you can definitely use the curve to create a copy. Simply select the curve that has been projected (you know when is it is selected because the Move gizmo turns into the 2D gizmo of projected curves). Once you have selected the projected curve, in Modeling mode, simply go to the Curves menu, and select Duplicate Surface Curves. This will create a 3D curve (non projected), but that is tied to the projected curve by history. As long as you keep history, the duplicate curve will obey the projected curve. I hope this helps!
@@iguanazo12 Awesome man I really appreciate it - So I actually figured out what I was initially going to ask you but I have now run into another issue that maybe you can help me with: Ive drawn half a curve, mirrored it along the Z axis, and am now trying to attach the two halves to make one single curve. I was doing this earlier today with no issues but now for some reason when I use the attach curve tool and try to move the resulting curve around, half of it is basically stuck in place? It should be noted that this is something I dealt with a couple of weeks ago but had seemingly sorted itself out. I would greatly appreciate any help you can offer 👍
@@proboscidean So I tried replicating your issue on my end, by my curves attach normally, and the result behaves as 1 single curve, with nothing staying stuck. Was the original curve attached or parented to something before you duplicated it?
@@iguanazo12 Hey man - sorry for the late response So basically the issue ended up resolving itself. Not sure how haha. I've experienced the same issue a couple of times since then too but it always seems to work itself out eventually. Ill let you know if I ever figure out what im doing to cause it. Anyways, thanks a bunch for your time I really appreciate what you do on here!

Nice turorial! Thanks for sharing~
This was helpful thank you!
Haha I'm also modeling a lantern right now, what a coincidence
Hi! Is there a way to separate that line and move it? I tried but the color doesnt change on it but it went to change on the sphere instead

Hey man I have a question about projecting curves onto a surface. I dont know if I can somehow message you on TH-cam?
Hi there, feel free to ask the questions. If I can, I'll be glad to answer. Cheers!
