Loft along the line

marcin_bortkiewicz

Hi, 

I do quite well when it comes to solving problems in CAD software, but I am having a problem with this one. 
I am trying to create a part that has a variable cross section  which changes along the curve. 
Any ideas?

@ marcin_bortkiewicz , Presently in Onshape we can not use guide curve made with number of curves and also guide curve should intersect the cross section curves so we can't make guide cure in center.I made your part as below.

Guide could be just lines and arcs, they need to be tangent, thats all.

To answer @marcin_bortkiewicz question, unfortunately we don't have loft with centerline, not yet.

Thanks for the information.I didn't noticed that.

@Narayan_K don't pick sketch segments in a viewport, pick whole sketch from browser, it will work.

@ michał_1, Yes,we have to select from model tree. Selection from model space will not work.
