## Function Description:
This command is used to create 3D solids or surfaces by several cross sections.
Those cross sections determine the shape of 3D solids or surfaces and there must be at least two
cross sections. Lofting profile can be open or closed, planar or non-planar, and
can also be edge of sub objects.
User can apply the LOFT command on the following objects or sub objects:
1.The following objects can be selected as cross sections:
2D polyline, spline, arc, elliptical arc, and line.
2.The following objects can be selected as path:
3D polyline, spline and line.
3.The following objects can be selected as guides: Spline and line. Users can set the DELOBJ system variable to delete cross sections, guides and
path automatically.
