Translations:Part Loft Technical Details/5/en

If at least one of the profiles as different number of segments, the following procedure is applied. The procedure is explained here for the case of only two profiles for simplicity.
 * 1) the profiles are temporarily aligned so that they are coplanar and their centers of masses* match.
 * 2) (see the picture) for every vertex in one profile, the second profile is sliced at the same polar angle (the polar center is the center of mass). If there is more than one slice possible or no slice possible at all (it can happen on very convex profiles), the Loft typically fails.
 * 3) the same is done in the opposite direction.
