I wanted to add a core or a sphere to my original Tao object, but when I add this "TAO SPHERE", the original shape changes. I setted the "segment-sizeX" to be '1' but when I add this light layer, it suddenly have more SizeX value. I can't increase of decrease it. It just happens to have increased SizeX. what is happening?

 

or I can make a 2D with cc sphere, I've seen someone's question which had been already answered, in the support coummunity, but i don't know how to do it. please help. thanks in advance.

 

Im not originally English user so please give a easy description. or maybe some images.

It looks like you need to study up on TAO. I'm not sure because I can't see the modified properties of the TAO layer (press uu and post another screenshot), but I think you are using more than one path generator. Turn on a light and TAO creates a path from a light path. When you turn off the light and the path disappears. If you have a fractal applied it will apply to all paths that are on so it makes sense that the fractal will be different because the paths are different.
