Is Maya actually able to extrude a curve along another curve to create a surface that isn't horribly distorted? Or is this a bug introduced in 2017?
See the attached 2017 Maya file. I'm trying to extrude curve2 around curve1 to make a roof gutter. It only works properly if you extrude along a straight path (curve3), but once a curve is more complex - even if its flat - it seems Maya just can't extrude surfaces without doing random scaling on the resulting surface, which is pretty bad considering we're at 2017.
If anyone can get this working advice would be great.
