    Hi All,

    I really like the way they've enhanced the tangency control in surface
    lofts. Being able to put in extra connectors, and vary the weight of the
    curvature at those points, is also an excellent addition,,, If it worked
    consistently. Our I.D. guys are drooling over my shoulder, but I can't let
    them have it yet

    I've been experimenting with this stuff, and I've discovered that no matter
    how perfect and symmetrical a surface is set up, it can still have
    unexplainable twists and wrinkles that can't be eliminated. I have this one
    case where I'm trying to loft between two existing closed (tubular, but
    curvy) surfaces, very similar to the "bird head" thingy in the whats new
    samples. One side is nice and smooth (mesh preview, another gem) while the
    other side takes a totally random serpentine path leaving wrinkles. Adding
    and manipulating connectors doesn't help.

    The way this is set up, the surface "should be" smooth and symmetrical left
    to right, and top to bottom by default.

    Anyone else seen this


    Regards

    Mark
