Hello, i have a problem with my object.
i created a "World Map" with : Shapes - Line
then i extruded it with : Modifier - Extrude ,as you can see in below
in this time everything is fine. But when i want to Bend my object, it becomes destroy like below.Some lines appear on my object.
can some one help me to make Object's Bend correct? i will be thankful.

You could create a QUAD PATCH object so that it covers the entire map object....then make sure that the map is intersecting the quad patch, then use the map object as the cutter in a ProBoolean operation...use the intersect option and you should be left with a map that is all quads. You can then bend this and modify it however you wish without any of the distortion issues you're having now. If you need a thickness on it, you can either add a Shell modifyer or convert it to an editable poly and extrude the polygons up. good luck
