    Do you mean like a tapered thread? What version of Pro?

    like a wing that has a 3 to 1 taper with a 6 degree twist at the tip (the twist is constant). ver 3

    ...or you can also use a variable section sweep. This is a pretty vague question, the best method depends on the geometry needed. I like VSS's because as long as the section has the same amount of elements and does not change too radically, I think it gives smoother, more controlled results.
