Hi again.
I'm having a great deal of fun using the patching tools, especially the network patch, but the one major limitation I keep running into is that it can only loft single segments. This is fine if all I'm lofting is simple curves or splines, but if I want to loft something more complicated such as a profile that has a straight line segment in it (see images below), then Patch will only loft one surface at a time even if the segments are "joined" together. This can be very time consuming and difficult if there are a lot of profile lines that I need to loft, for example to make a boat hull. Other programs that have nurbs tools can handle this and I was wondering if this can be addressed in LWCAD. It would be great if I could just single click profiles regardless of their shape and loft them.
Thanks
