    Variational sweep

    Thank you Toost. I have followed your recommendations and everything works in 3D. It is obvious when you pointed it out that the sketch must be constrained so it can "be dynamical". Thanks again.

    Variational sweep

    Thanks a lot for your input. I think I know how to manoeuvre the Variational sweep now. It seems that you can´t use a guide that varies along a vertical axis. The guide/-s must be in one plane. As soon as I tried to use a guide that vary along the z-axis I got an unexpected result, and I could...

    Variational sweep

    Thank´s Toost for your answer. I have tried to do as you recommended. It became better when I made the guide smoother but the section still looked strange. So I have made a new guide in one plane, a simple 3 degree spline just to get it to work. Then I made the two variational sweep as in the...

    Variational sweep

    I´m trying to understand how the Variational sweep works, but I fail. The first surface I have made a simple section that I want to follow the guide. The sweep does not follow the guide instead it creates a surface with a strange shape. Why? The second surface on layer 2 I have a simple...
