Curves try to emit hair particles #26

@LLKoder It looks like the error you ran into is one that should be caught, but isn't. Sorry about that.

What I see in your screenshot is that you have selected a curve object and the "Emit Hair on Self" Checkbox is checked. That shouldn't be allowed because curve objects can't have hair in Blender.

When you want to use a curve as a guide for hair, you'll need to add a mesh object to your selection, then click "Add Hair From: Curves". Then the hair system is created on the active object, using any selected curves as guides.

@Jandals , can you explain to me how can I use "Add Hair from Curves" without bevel? It any times show me an error. Is this feature working at all or I do the wrong action?

Thanks a lot! It's worked. :) But hair does not follow the curve automatically when I change the last. Do I have to click the button each time when I change the curve? Or I misunderstand something?

It sounds like you're expecting the generated hair to change as you edit the curve object. I would like to make it work that way but there's no interactive editing yet.

As it is, when you make a change to a mesh or curve object, you'll need to click a button again.

Thanks a lot again for the explanation and add-on. :)
