I have been struggling to close wing and fuselage surfaces when creating a multisection surface. The problem arises when the guides (one for the leading edge and a second one for the trailing edge) become tangent to themselves at the tips, and I want to disable End/Start Relimitation. I have tried to include a tiny profile close to the tip, but it doesn't always work, and it's not elegant. Is there an elegant way to do this?

Multisection with tangent guides 2

Sorry, I thought I uploaded a screenshot.
I have also tried all the coupling methods and splitting the profile into two halves (upper and lower) and perform the multisection twice.
The problem may be also related to one guide been longer (geodesically) than the other, what causes the section to advance faster over one guide so the ends of the last section don't get to the tip at the same time. Is it possible to perform the multisection parallel to a plane while Catia is sweeping the profiles so both ends of the last profile hit the tip at the same time?
