    Hi,
    I’m just wanting to use 2 splines and a sweep to create some geometry between two sections. How do I get the geometry to sit between the 2 splines, at the moment (as pictured) they are not attached.

    I see, you really are using only two splines in a Sweep (without using a Rail Spline) the functionality is

    Sweep
    – spline (spline that gets swept)
    – spline (along this spline)

    Because your splines are not at the origin point it looks offset from the ‘along this’ spline. What you want (I think) is not a Sweep but a Loft. If you put two splines in a Loft it will make geometry to join the two.
