I have a suggestion for a new surface cration tool: revolve match. I often find myself especially while modeling corners of soft goods in the need of a revolved surface with different profiles and a smooth transition between. I illustrated the process in these screenshots:

  1. two diffent profiles and rotation axis
  2. created surface with matching ends

  3. smooth transition

What do you think? Is the also possible with sweep2 or matchsrf?

Create arcs for the top and bottom edges of the new surface.

Sweep2 using the arcs as the rails and the profile curves as the cross-section curves.
