Components

X/Y axis

X/Y axis values can be adjusted to set the degree of roundness to roll the surface in the X/Y axis. When the value is a positive number, it rolls to the direction of the surface. When the value is a negative number, it rolls to the opposite direction of the surface.

※ Note: Surface direction can be checked via Viewport Tools > Show Darken Backside

Spiral

This function is for switching the direction of the surface spiral. It determines which side to raise the end of the shape. 

When the value is a negative number, the right side of the surface (seen from the front) is raised and covers the left side. When the value is a positive number, the left side of the surface is raised and covers the right side.
