Surface Section

The Surface section of the action bar provides commands for creating surfaces.

This page discusses:

Extrude
See Flyout for Extrude
Sweep
See Flyout for Sweep
Fill
Creates a fill surface between boundary segments.
See Creating Fill Surfaces.
Multi-Sections Surface
See Flyout for Multi-Sections Surface

Flyout for Extrude

Extrude
Creates an extruded surface by extruding a profile along a given direction.
See Creating Extruded Surfaces.
Revolve
Creates a revolution surface by revolving a planar profile about an axis.
See Creating Revolved Surfaces.
Sphere
Creates a spherical surface.
See Creating Spherical Surfaces.
Cylinder
Creates a cylindrical surface by extruding a circle along a given direction.
See Creating Cylindrical Surfaces.

Flyout for Sweep

Sweep
Creates a swept surface by sweeping out a profile in planes normal to a spine curve.
See Creating Swept Surfaces.
Adaptive Sweep
Creates an adaptive swept surface that use an implicit profile and its constraints along a guiding curve.
See Creating Adaptive Swept Surfaces.
Note: This command is available in all Generative Shape Design apps except Generative Wireframe and Surface app.

Flyout for Multi-Sections Surface

Multi-Sections Surface
Creates a multi-section surface by sweeping one or more section curves along an automatically computed or user-defined spine.
See Working with Multi-Sections Surfaces.
Blend
Creates a blended surface between two wireframe elements.
See Creating Blended Surfaces.
