Surface help needed
(OP)
I have attached a picture of the 3 profiles that I need to come together. I can accomplish this a few ways but noticed the "transition" feature looks like it might be the best. Unfortunately its not working for me. It keeps saying cannot build bottom surface. Any advice on the best way to do this?

As far as the bottom surface goes you may want to add some curves so that you can create a few surfaces, and then sew them together.
Don't be afraid to create the surfaces seperately on other areas as well, and then sew them together.

I have attached an example I did for Simon some time back. I think the best way to control the result is to simply create a slab surface spanning the centre portion and then blend the corners. You've always your work cut out for you creating such a complex shape to relatively few points on a scan.
The Attached is in NX-5 BTW I hope that you'll find a way to open it.
