> PPS - Would it be possible to add a pick option for a custom profile shape?
>>Well, at that point you are not really getting any benefit compared to sweep, except for handling a larger number of curves at once, is that what you need to do?
Well I tried for example drawing a circle for the profile, I offset the circle to make a smaller one (inner diameter) - I selected both circles, executed the sweep command and then selected my squiggly line - only the outer diameter circle was used for the sweep...
The nice thing about this new command is that you can create a single profile, select your curve for it to follow and you get a nice inner diameter parameter for free that allows you to create a shell for your extrusion.
Having the option of picking a custom profile shape would allow me to create say ducting as well as tubing.
Basically Pipe is a hella great function you just added (and just that quick too!) - having the option for a custom profile would be very powerful IMO!
