AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Interact With Source Code Of LOFT Command
Jul 6, 2012How can i interact with the source code of LOFT command.Especially, I'd like to inform me, about the method that Loft commad uses in order to draw a solid. I suppose that the two sketches I want to intersect, are close enough, thus the programm, can't generate the geometry...

Jul 26, 2011Autocad used to perform the LOFT command partially in the COMMAND LINE and additional properties could be setted in the DIALOGUE BOX.
I used to draw my lofted elements :
1. Pick sections in order
2. Following Guide, Path,...
3. Dialogue box ( sections smooth fit, ruled, normal to,...)
4. Volume was drawn.
Nowdays it's a bit more extended but in step 2 when u pick a path the volume is drawn immediately and I can't append additional properties like in step 3.
Filedia is on 1
How do I get to the Loft dialogue box ?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Shell Out A Loft
Feb 27, 2012I need to shell out a Loft in the attached IV 2012 part file.The Loft i tried also as a new solid but the shell also cuts into the cylinder ( revolution 1 ) . I only want the 2 sides and bottom of the Loft to be Shelled, not the cylinder. What do i need to change to get the shell to work?

Mar 17, 2012I'm trying to loft a profile between 3 circles and i have created 2 2d spline guides to loft through (see picture).
I get an error when i select the two splines as guides which says
"Modeling Operation Error:
The guide is not G1 between first and last sections. The selected entities are not valid"
The guides are definitely touching the profile edges so I'm not sure what the problem is.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Loft To Curved Surface

Nov 6, 2011I have a cylinder on top of a curved surface; I want to make the cylinder land adaptively to the surface, so I projected the circular face of the cylinder in the surface, which ended up being a 3D sketch. I tried to loft a solid between both curves, but it always gives me errors. Some examples are:The attempted operation did not produce a meaningful result. Try with different inputs.Multiple disjoint loops found in a profile section.
I have had success when trying to do the same thing with curved surfaces in two dimensions only (e.g. extruding a 2D curve), but I think the error is produced since the curved face I am trying to use belongs to an elipsiod.
AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Copy / Paste A Loft
Jul 24, 2012Okay I've been building random things to teach myself how to use Inventor and right now I'm stuck on a rim I'm creating. My question is.. is there a way to copy and paste a lofted item since there are three parts to it (2 planes and 1 guide) because I need 4 more spokes and if I copy the loft it copies all three parts seperately. Then when I paste and orientate the small end of the loft to the plane I want it tells me "Unsatisfied Geometric Inputs".

Another problem i have is how do i make Revolution-2 at the end terminate into Revolution-1 smoothly.I tried using Loft but it kept getting fail message.Picture 1-2 shows where to terminate the end into the Revolution-1 body.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Put Loft Sketch On Drawing?
Nov 22, 2013I have created a loft from 4 different sketches. Now I want to make a drawing with the front, side view and the dimensions of the 4 profile sketches from the loft. But I can’t find a way to put the sketches from the part on my paper. It works with copy-paste ;^) but this is not the way I want it (it’ll not change when I change the profiles in the part).

AutoCAD Inventor :: Loft Command Not Working For A Cut
Oct 8, 2012I am following the U-Tube exercise called "Emergency Light (Cabinet) volume 1". I am at time stamp 1 hour 26 minutes, exactly.
In the video they use a Loft command in order to cut a shape out of two sketches numbered 10 & 11. I have been copying exactly and am having difficulty at this stage of the model.
Is there any reason why I am managing to use the Loft command earlier perfectly but not at this point.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Split Tool And Loft Perhaps?

Jun 16, 2013I'm making these legs for a piece of furniture. I need this to be a solid object.
So I drew a vertical line, set the radius using circunferemces. Then (can't remember how, it was long time ago) I manage to turn them into surfaces (circles, so it's an area).
Now when I loft them, it won't result in a solid. Why?
AutoCad 3D :: Can't Perform The Loft Operation On A Path
May 9, 2012I am a newbie just start learning how to use AutoCAD in both 2D and 3D.
I have drawn a 3D polyline, and putting two circles with different diameters on both end, trying to loft it and create a horn-shaped like object.
For some reason, AutoCAD keeps complaining the path I selected is not valid, and so I can't do the loft operation. However, I have 'tested' the path with sweep function, and it works.

It seemed to work when I made the rail a straight line but I need it to follow the edge of the surface which is a line, tangent to small r3 arc, tangent to line and connected through projective geometry from the original surface sketch.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: Create A Loft With Intersecting Planes (vb)?
Apr 27, 2012I want to create a solid using VB and loft definition.
I creat each time different planes that have a constant distance in x dimension and a steady rotation each time φ (deg).
On each each plane i sketch the same profile and that is happened for 360 deg.
The problem is that Loft is not made because a line of the profile must follow a line tragectory and all other points must follow a circular tragectory. Also, there is a problem from 180 deg to 360 because there is intersection of profiles.
The result must be a solid similar to snail shell but all the same solid, as a cylindar whith a half sphere in the bottom.
AutoCAD Inventor :: 2011 Loft And Boundary Fail
Nov 13, 2011In the attached sample file if you edit the sketch in the first surface feature and change the dimension of 600 to 700, both the patch and loft features fail. It seems to be the curved edge that is the problem in both cases.
I cant see anything wrong with either way of modelling this so assume its a bug.This causes other problems in my real model with parts that reference these types of surfaces falling apart further down stream and is wasting heaps of $$$.
