Try going back to [Join Curves] and using [Shift Paths] on the output.
Make sure you select Align Curves in the Loft Options"

Theunis du Toit replied to matthew pierce's discussion lofting multiple curve sets"Alright, planes are messy, rather create random curves from the points, then intersect the curves with the curves. I added an image with the definition."
Theunis du Toit replied to matthew pierce's discussion lofting multiple curve sets"I think the game stays the same, only the players need to change. Replace the Brep parameter with the Points you will use to make the Breps, and change the intersection component with one that deals with points and curves, not Breps and Curves.…"
matthew pierce replied to matthew pierce's discussion lofting multiple curve sets"i think what i need to do is eliminate the points that fall on the edge of the surface and then use the remaining points to create the circles, lofts, and holes that are cut in the surface by the projected circles. that will reduce the number of…"
Theunis du Toit replied to matthew pierce's discussion lofting multiple curve sets"I checked which objects intersect with the surface's edges and selecting the other ones."
matthew pierce replied to matthew pierce's discussion lofting multiple curve sets"ok, so here is my result attached. worked out perfectly!
another small item i need to resolve that i imagine is quite common- is there a way to exclude the points that occur at the surface edges? as you can see, the circles that are placed here are…"
matthew pierce replied to matthew pierce's discussion lofting multiple curve sets"thanks to both of you for the rapid responses. i applied david's flatten and graft sequence and it appears to be working. i'll test it in a few more ways and then post the result.
thank you again!

Theunis du Toit replied to matthew pierce's discussion lofting multiple curve sets"an image of the definition would be appreciated with a Parameter viewer plugged into the component that will feed the curves into the loft component"
David Rutten replied to matthew pierce's discussion lofting multiple curve sets"Hi Matthew,
you need to put your circles into lists before calling the Loft component. You can start by Grafting your circles (to make sure each circle is in its own little list), then offset them. Since it's possible that a single curve…"

just starting out with GH and i have a question about lofting multiple curve sets. i have populated a surface with a grid of circles, and then offset each circle. i would like to then loft each pair of curves, but i can't figure out how to separate them into pairs since 'loft' just takes a list, as opposed to 'curve a' , 'curve b', and so on.any advice would be appreciated!mattSee More
