I have 2 rectangles and i want to loft them by path.I want the path to be arc , but i cant draw the arc in isometric view. The objects are positioned something like thes 2 smiles :D

:(

 

 

:(

one is exactly above the other and i want to draw arc to connect them and then use loft but cant make the arc. I tried to draw the arc in Front view, but i then i couldnt use it as loft path.So how to make the arc in 3d?

Draw the arcs in the plane that you need them by reorienting your UCS. You do know how to to this right?

I"ve red something about that, will make a couple of tries and see ;) . Thank"s.

I thought about it too, but hmm how to say it , the arc is too big , this has to be a leg of a chair , which bottom part is just a little hooked see this picture , i made the table legs using loft from cirle to rectangle,but i dont know how to make back legs of the chair , as i said i am thinking of loft with arc but ...

So now we get almost all the information. It's a chair leg not a smile.

Please don't whine. There is no whining in CAD.

 

So what would you like us to do? A spline and two rectangles should be the solution to your problem or is there some other piece of information we are missing?

 

Something in your construction of the chairs appears off. Post one of them in a dwg file. We'll play with it.

OK , so with a little bit of practising i should be able to make it as i want with spline? How exactly spline works? I tried it i select point on 1st rectangle then point on the second, but the spline always wants to closed itself, maybe i close it and then removing what i dont need with brake?

For one I drew an ARC with a spline between the two POLYGONS in YOUR drawing.

 

Read my signature.

 

You needed a spline not an arc and you need a third point for the spline and or another polygon.

Spline? Where have I heard that word before? Spline.

I think you are just imagining things ReMark.......8)

Thanks for jogging my memory circuits. Must be solar flares disrupting the electrical synapses.
