Loft from sketch A to sketch B along a spline?

Need help? We are here.
1

In Fusion 360, I was able to sketch two shapes set apart on different planes, then sketch a spline along a perpendicular plane that could guide a loft between the two sketches. It seems in Shapr I can either loft from shape A to shape B, or loft A along a perpendicular spline but it will maintain the same shape along the whole spline.

Am I missing another way to do this?

Hi @BrokenAxle, you are right. We don’t have guided lofts yet. We will improve our surface modeling capabilities in Q1/Q2 significantly though.

Thanks for the quick reply @Istvan. At least I know I wasn’t missing something. I look forward to next year’s enhancements!

That’s good news! I’m also waiting for the modification of this tool. It would be very useful :wink:

Will love it too

Has there been any progress on this? I am trying to model an inlet for a water jet and don’t know how to solve this without this feature.

Does this work for you?

How to draw all those guide lines?

The key was making construction planes via 3 Points. The circle is 8" in diameter in this example. Let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks @TigerMike , I got it. I hope next improvement is using only a curve connecting center of circle and rectangular as the loft guide

Thanks @TigerMike for the suggestion and explainer video. This is perfect for what I needed to achieve.
