Hi,

I have a problem that the Loft tool does not follow the path and it goes under the path inspite of that path intersuct the sketch in its center. 

Attached the ipt file.

Thank you

Sketch 5 profile is not even centered to the Center Path rail?

Isn't this obvious?

Hi, keep in mind that loft will coat two profiles
If you are going to use a guide curve I would recommend as far as possible that this curve intersects the base profiles used in the loft, not that it passes through its center of geometry (a recommendation somewhat different from the sweep that would place the route to the center), Another recommendation would be that the guide curve is smooth and does not have angled linear intersections to facilitate the loft task.
If the guide curve does not intersect the profiles or intersects one and the other does not, it is possible to give you errors.
I hope to have been clear and to help you solve your problem, greetings.

Well Mr. Mather, thank you , your notice has worked well, but when I drew it, it was in the center and I didn't make any addition to it, so I don't know how did it move from place while my concentration is on the main sketch. Well, still learning from the faults.

Thank you and best regards
