Example: Create a guided loft with blending options
The blending options determine how multiple profiles will be blended and influence the shape of the surface.
Choose from two blending options:
• Hermite: Two consecutive profiles are connected tangentially. This option has a local effect such that only the two consecutive profiles are connected tangentially. Any subsequent profiles are not influenced by the connection of the previous two. Hermite is suitable for use with weights.
• Smooth: All profiles are connected together tangentially. This option has a global effect and provides smoother results than the Hermite option. If weights are specified, the surface is effected locally as in the Hermite option. This option does not work with closed spines. In that case, the spine is trimmed at the outermost profiles.
