[Anonymous]

When you reopen the Loft from the timeline the customization of connected loft points is lost:

Hi @Anonymous 

Thanks for posting! I observed the issue you described when initially editing the loft in your file, but the settings stick if I rotate the control points to the intended locations and then confirm the loft - the loss of form only occurs on the first edit. While I was also unable to recreate to recreate this in a new file following your timeline, I'll be keeping an eye peeled for future reports.

Thank you for looking into this.

Unfortunately the issue reoccurs if you save and reopen the file. (I believe the positive result is only good for a specific "session")

I started over from from a new design and issue is still occurring...

Hi @Anonymous 

Thanks for the response! I did not try closing and reopening the file - the selection is certainly lost if the loft is edited after close/reopen.

I've logged FUS-49011 with the development team on this, thank you bringing it up.

Hi @Anonymous, many thanks for posting this case and apologies that it has taken so long to be addressed. Yes, this has definitely been a problem since the inception of the feature tree within Fusion modelling. I guess that it's a throwback to the days when Fusion was purely direct-modelling software. It works okay for editing within a session where the loft features have been created in the model, but nothing beyond that.

This issue has now been fixed. Once this fix has made it to release, any brand new models made by a user with loft features that possess mapping data will automatically work as expected, i.e. allow immediate and correct editing of the loft mapping after re-opening the model.
Any 'older' models that possess loft features that have mapping data can simply be opened, then a 'compute all' is required to generate all the relevant caches, and then it can be saved. Re-opening this model will then allow immediate and correct editing of the loft mapping.

Again, all the best from development.

Glad to share - the fix was shipped as part of June 2020 release.
Please give it a try and let us know if you are still facing this issue.
