Samples
| Loft Feature With Non-Planar Section |
This sample demonstrates the creation of a loft feature. It uses two sections for the loft, one is from a 2d sketch and the other is a non-planar section from a 3d sketch. Because one of the sketches isn't planar, a surface is created instead of a solid. |
