    • To adjust how Fusion positions the faces, in the Spacing drop-down, select one of the following:
      • Uniform. Sets the spacing evenly along the curve.
      • Curvature. Creates more faces where the curve is tightest.
    • For Orientation, specify whether the sweep occurs perpendicular or parallel to the path.
    • Select the New Body as an Operation, which creates a new body in the active component.
