Solid Sweep

I'd like to sweep a solid cylinder keeping the X-Plane faces parallel to each other throughout the sweep. Any ideas? The new functionality excited me for a moment but it doesn't appear than it can constrain movement relative to a plane.

Do you mean aligned with the Y axis?

 

Can anyone help?

Aligned to the Y is correct. I see your findings are the same as mine.

I seem to be encountering the same failure you observe when selecting the "parallel" option, the solid sweep fails to solve.
