loft
(OP)
Hi,
I am a newish user and am having trouble making a simple lofted part. The error that I consistnetly get is that 'the guide curve is not valid. It does not intersect with section 2'. The section 2 comment varies depending on which sketch is selected first.
My profile is circular to square, although for testing I have been using circle to circle. The guide path is a series of lines and arcs that make a 90 degree bend. results are the same if the guidleines are all seperate sketches or just one sketch. I have made the guide curves thru the center points of the sketched circles, but apparently these sketches are not associated with the guide curves.
If I do not use the guidelines the lofted solid is created from my profile sketches.
Unfortunately my usual sources of help are all on vacation (lucky me-I get to work this week) so any guidance will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

RE: loft
Here is a simple loft - http:
Another option in lofting is "Show all connectors. This will help you control the guide curves within the feature.
