Using the Twist+ Operation

The Twist+ Operation is used to twist objects. It is a more sophisticated version of the standard Twist operation which allows for variable amounts of twisting.

A series of control points are connected to create the deformation curve. These points define a B-Spline curve. This form of curve has a start control point and end control point that are guaranteed to be on the curve, but any other control points act as magnets attracting the curve in their direction.

Click on a control point and drag to twist the object in the region of the control point.

The top left panel is the deform preview. The bottom left panel allows you to select the orientation of the deformation.
