Twisted Extrude

Creates a 3D object by extruding (sweeping) a 2D open or closed profile along a path normal to the workplane of the 2D object and imparting a twist. If you extrude an open profile, a surface will be created.

Note: Compound profiles can be modified, which updates the 3D objects upon which they are based. See Profile Editing.

Twisted ExtrudeShape Properties

...

Twist Angle: Specifies the total rotation of the twist.
Distance Type: Specifies where the twist will be applied to the extrusion. Normal applies the extrude between the Start and End distance. Full height applies the twist to the entire extrusion. Twist to Top applies the twist from the Start distance to the top of the extrusion.
Twist Start Distance: Where the twist starts along the extrusion.
Twist End Distance: Where the twist ends along the extrusion.
Continuity: Specifies the smoothness of the transition between the straight sections and the twisted sections. G0 is the most abrupt transition, G1 is a more moderate transition, and G2 is the smoothest transition.
