I am trying to create a flat spiral, and so I looked it up on google which I found this post: How to make flat spirals it is exactly what I'm trying to achieve here, so I followed up with the settings and stuff. after that, I realized that my blender (2.79) does not have the spiral option when I'm checking the curve section. does anyone know how I can fix this?

To make a spiral you need to go to Curve > Curve Spirals > Archimedean Once you do that, you will have what it appears to be a CLOSE circle. In order to make the spiral, you need to use the side bar to increase the radius growth and add more turns to it.

  • $\begingroup$ @JayStanley to be honest, it's the same, the menu looks different, but it's the same process $\endgroup$
