As I understand it TS7.6 now has sweep edges. Would that be the same as "Dynamic Sweep" and by selecting edges?
Does the other "Sweep" function use edges?
Where in the Manual is Sweep Edges discussed?
Is there a new to 7.6 section anywhere? (other then in the Captain's Blog)

Yep, it's used by setting element type to edges and using the Dynamic Sweep tool. ;)

Nope, you can't sweep edges using the regular sweep tool.

Also you'll want to be careful of how you use it, since the edge sweeps are double sided. If you only need a single sided extrude then you'll need to go back and delete one set of the swept faces. I'm hoping that the next release will have a checkbox option added to choose double vs. single sided.

Hope that helps!
