Hi, in the attached file, I can loft for example the first 3 faces, obtaining the right results, i.e. the first and last faces of the solid are flat. Instead, If I try lofting all the faces, always paying attention to their order, the last face assumes a bulged shape... The parameters are: Solid=Tru...

Re: win32ui under FreeCAD

Thank you wmayer, it really works!!
Now I can import win32ui. Unfortunately the problem has shifted to have also DDE working.. (I got the same error of "DLL load failed"). But probably this is a different problem, and I'm going to look in pywin sites...

Thank you again
