Parameters

EntitiesArray
Array of closed entities
CrossSectionOnly
True to only use cross sections defined by arcs, lines, polylines, or polygons, false to also use a path curve that intersects each cross section
PathArray
Array of one path curve that intersects each cross section to shape the solid; valid only if CrossSectionOnly is false
LoftSurfaceOption
Loft surfacing option as defined in dsLoftSurfaceNormalOption_e
LoftOption
Loft option as defined in dsLoftedSurfaceNormalOption_e only if LoftSurfaceOption is dsLoftSurfaceNormalOption_NormalTo
DraftStartAngle
Starting draft angle in radians; valid only if LoftSurfaceOption is dsLoftSurfaceNormalOpion_DraftAngles
DraftEndAngle
Ending draft angle in radians; valid only if LoftSurfaceOption is dsLoftSurfaceNormalOpion_DraftAngles
DraftStartCurvature
Starting draft curvature; valid only if LoftSurfaceOption is dsLoftSurfaceNormalOpion_DraftAngles
DraftEndCurvature
Ending draft curvature; valid only if LoftSurfaceOption is dsLoftSurfaceNormalOpion_DraftAngles
[out] or Return Value
ILoft
