Sweep, twist BUG.

This problem has come up a few times. If you have a circle that's concentric with the sweep path that's part of the profile you're trying to sweep, sweep will fail. It's not so much a bug, more Fusion should deal with the situation. I can see the problem is down to in effect twisting a cylinder which is probably not a good idea, but surely sweep could be tuned up to deal with the situation and just not twist the concentric circle but twist the rest of the profile. Screencast and file below.

 

Thanks Mark

I tried it on my end! and it showed a preview but then failed at creating the object. It seems it was trying to "ignore" the cylinder sweep but failed to compute the shape!

I tried everything in my power but the forum somehow selects the wrong screencast after selecting the right one - it says that something wrong with the HTML and randomly picks another video lol so here is a link to the correct one:
