Hi Tim and those under the umbrella,

I would like to suggest to be able to loft two surfaces with the value 0 for bulge. I find this tool very useful when I offset two similar surfaces and I want to enclose the perimeter with flat walls irrespective of the ruled surface command.

Normally, I need to start with a bulge of value 1 and then loft the edges which gives a curved surface between the edges. Then I switch to zero manual on the input box and do this back and forth manual input of 1 to zero.

The command does allow it to loft at zero but it won't do it if set to zero when going around the perimeter of the surface thus needing to put a 1. :rolleyes:
