To Create a Solid by Lofting Through a Set of Cross-section Profiles

1. Click Modeling tab > Solid panel > Modeling drop-down > Loft.
2. In the drawing area, select cross-section profiles and press Enter. (Select them in the order in which you want the new 3D object to pass through the cross sections.)
3. Do one of the following:
   • Use cross-section profiles only. Press Enter again or enter c (Cross sections only).

     In the Loft Settings dialog box, modify the options to control the shape of the new object. Click the Preview Changes box to preview the changes as you make them.

     Click OK when finished.

   • Follow guide curves. Enter g (Guide curves). Select the guide curves and press Enter.
   • Follow a path. Enter p (Path). Select a path and press Enter.

   After the loft operation, the original objects are deleted or retained, depending on the setting of the DELOBJ system variable.
