Problem creating a Loft. Error: "One or more profiles have multiple edge loops"

Hi Everyone

 

I ran into a problem creating a loft and receives this error message:

Error:   One or more profiles have multiple edge loops.
    Try reselecting the profiles.
Error: Cannot create tool body for loft.

I attached a f3d file with a simplified version of the problem.

Body1 was created by sweeping the profile in sketch2 through 360deg around the right hand straight edge.

I then try to do the loft from the bottom surface of Body1 to the circle outline on Sketch1.

 

The bottom surface of Body1 is not a flat surface, so that might be causing the problem, but I cannot figure out how to solve it.

Please let me know if I should explain better.

Any inputs will be greatly appreciated.

Regards

looking at the profile inputs, the loft doesn't make logical sense.  I would expect this to fail.  what is your expectation for the result?

The attached project is just a very simplified model of my problem. I'm trying to understand the error message and if I can solve the loft on these simplified objects, hopefully I can then fix the problem in my actual project.

The actual project has a similar 3d Object (with a curved bottom surface), albeit much more complicated in shape, that I have to loft to another profile.

can you sketch what your hoping the end result to look like?

 

the wording for a lot of fusion's error messages would only make sense to a programmer.  basically fusion is getting confused on how to map the points because of the shape of the solid.

Im signing off.  I suspect the attached is the result you're looking for.  when solid lofting fails, you have to move on to  more versatile surface lofting.
