  BEND.INC - error in atan function (Message 1 to 3 of 3)

Hi all,

Downloaded Chris Colefax's BEND.INC, but having problems running the example
file. It comes up with the error:
error: Domain error in atan2
and it highlights the line:

#declare _BN_roty = degrees(atan2(_BN_axisvec.x, _BN_axisvec.z))

Is BEND.INC compatible with POV 3.1g? Have I got an old version of this
include file?

Thanks

Reuben

It sounds like you have given the include wrong parameters (ie. you are
trying to bend the object in an impossible way).

It sounds like you might have an older copy of the file - you can download
the latest version of all the include files directly from my page:
