Summary: Improve the way IV handles model sweeps by correcting the self-intersecting problem

Description: be able to handle self intersecting models better. When you have a profile and sweep it around a tight corner the profile will self intersect and will cause an error. Simular to a picture frame affect.

How Used: I work for a company that designs and manufactures lenses for lighting. I would be able to construct the profile of the lens and sweep it around a path to construct the shell of the lens.

Feature Affinity: Part Modeling
