Minimize Twist
The Twist option may be used to minimize the twist of the surface produced. Twist minimization aligns
closed curves such that the start of the second curve is aligned to the start of the first curve. Even if a
body’s shape is unaffected by twisting, a surface with a twist could produce unexpected results when
faceting and rendering. By default, twist minimization is on. Twist minimization is also an involved
calculation that some users may not want to have carried out.

where do I find the "Twist option"; it appears 1371 came with twist minimization off.....

luk72-

two rectangular areas with round corners with an angle between their planes and offset fore & aft were used. the "lofting" tool and the "skinning" tool produced the same twisted result with SharkCAD Pro 1371. direction of the two rectangular areas didn't have any effect on the results...........
