Hi,

I have been trying to model some prism layers over the surface of an aerofoil, and no matter what parameters I seem to change I cant seem to make them change in shape.

Does anyone know why there is a peak in the centre of the aerofoil (please see attached photo), or how to best go about editing my prism layers?

Thank you
