Automatic snapping when using a pattern (loft function)

[Anonymous]

Greetings. Would anyone advise how to solve this problem? I control the whole model using parameters, but I came across the fact that I can't solve the coherence of the front and rear walls.

Please watch the video to see what I mean.

I created one component which I copy the function pattern. Everything works beautifully and even if I change the height, the other parts move. Unfortunately, I did not decide how to keep the components on the front and back wall. Thank you in advance for any advice.
Keep in mind that the movement is two angles, both horizontal and vertical.

Here is a video where I show what I need - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gK7ync4QFGs&feature=youtu.be

Hi,

Make friends with the compute option "Adjust" in the pattern menu.

Thanks so much for the response. But you used the extrude function, didn't you? I can't use it, because my height also changes.

please notice the GIF complete >> EXTRUDE > TO OBJECT*

For a better understanding, insert the file and name the lengths and angles involved.

* object lenght varies with the distance of a target object

Thank you for your response. I understand you, but I can't use the extrude function because it's two heights. I had to use the loft function. Please see the attached video to understand this. I need to move both the x-axis and the z-axis and there is the problem.

Thank you for your response. I am attaching the file and thank you in advance.

There is no way that I am aware of to do this with pattern.  Patterning the Loft won't work, because Adjust does not have that flexibility.  Because your cross-members are still constant thickness, there may be a way to do this in a clever way with Extrude and From/To object.  But, if you are convinced that Loft is necessary, the only way that I can see is to create multiple lofts:

Thank you for answer. Yes, if I do it manually, it's not a problem. I wanted to do it automated. I also don't think it will work. Maybe someone else can think of something.

Can't think of a way around it yet? Or try another procedure? Don't tell me fusion can't do that "trivial" thing. I don't mean anything wrong. But that I would kill the whole project for such things. I think there must be some solution to do it. I spent tens of hours doing it and I hoped that it would be solved somehow: D Thanks in advance.
