Full Version: How to add a curve to a loft?

Hi, i've just bought a licence and have a lot of fun practicing this new software.

If i make a loft with 3 curves (for example), is there a way to finally add a fourth later or do i have simply to make a new loft with the four curves selected?
Thank you and sorry for the noob question, the forum is still a bit complicated for me to use and perhaps i should have found the answer.

The more simple :
draw your 4 th curve like this you will see exactly where drawing it / existing surface
kill the previous surface lofted
Select the 4 curves
call Loft

Careful : if you select the 4 curves one by one : order is important!
If you select them by box selection normally you will obtain a progressive surface

Hi Nico, thanks for your purchase!

Currently there isn't any way to add an additional curve to an already completed loft using history. To do that you would need to delete the loft result and make a new one that has all 4 curves in it.

In the future I do want to work on deeper history editing functions but it will be quite a lot of work so I'm not sure when that will happen.

Thanks, - Michael
