Sweeping an open profile to make a surface

Hi Everyone,

 

Drawing a blank this morning - I have just set up an open profile and a path on which to sweep it on before realising the sweep tool is reserved for solid bodies. Anyone have any suggestions for sweeping a profile along a path to make a surface?

 

Thanks a lot

Did you try toggling to surface mode?

Yep that's it, feel like a right numpty now - it's these issues which have the simplest solution in the world which stump me the most!

Thank you

No worries, tiny things like that are easy to overlook.
It's easier to ask and get a quick answer than spend a lot of time finding the way to do it.
