Straight loft

uldemauldema Member Posts: 14 EDU

I need a loft from plane 1 to plane 2 going in a straight line, sort of, the middle section is a bit smaller at the top. I have tried every possible combination of loft setting that I can think of but for some reason I always get this forced curve in the part where the line should just go straight up. I wonder if Loft is the way to go here, I have also tried to Extrude it but then I cannot get it to connect. Is there a non-curved loft somewhere?

    Have you tried using the Connections option?

    @uldema ..almost certain the issue lies in your sketches…. From the pic posted it's apperant the bottom sketch has an extra line segment to it. Make sure your sketches have the SAME number of points (bottom sketch has the same number of points as the top sketch), then Loft will behave properly.

    I don't understand what is wrong with the link, I used the Share button and for me it links to the document, I don't know how else to share it.

    I have tried the connections, thank you, in the end I've fixed it in the Sketch as @john_lopez363 said in his reply.

    @john_lopez363 Thank you, it was indeed a difference in points due to a construction line I used in one sketch and not in the other.
