Hi,

When lofting a surface:
How do I select a guide that's composed of multiple segments?

Thanks

    I'm not sure you can at this point.  Maybe when they add 3D sketching you will be able to make a complex 3D line that you can use as a guide.

    I believe as long as the multiple guides are part of the same sketch you can select the entire sketch, using the menu on the left, and then it will work. Ive been trying to get this to work myself but havent had a lot of luck but I think its due to my guide splines not intersecting with the profiles.

    Just got this to work with my part. Selecting the sketch didnt work but if I select the guides individually it worked. I also had to select vertexes to get it all working.
