cannot get U and V values to endit lofted curve -open brep problem???

Hi I have made a lofted curve but when i change the u and v values nothing changes. I have tried a number of options such as sweeping instead of lofting and exploding the loft as it was an open brep, but is it still not working (even though there are no errors???

Thanks for any help

Can you post the .3dm file that has the curves for this surface?

the points/curves/surfaces are all on different layers on rhino.

Thanks for the help! I am also having trouble simplifying the mesh to use in ecotech...

This is fantastic thank you so much!! Only other question is how do you evenly spread out the U and v value over the curved mesh? The sections are all different sizes depening ont he curve

Thanks again

We're using a uniformly divided domain but I think what you might be asking for are uniformly divided edge curves. That's different.

ok thanks, is that easily done with what I currently have? or woudl I have to divide the curves then panel it?

I'm not sure. I'll look at it again later tonight.
