	3D Curve Creates a 3D curve using control points, possibly on a support element. See Creating Curves Using Control Points.
	Isoparametric Curve Creates an isoparametric curve on a surface. See Creating Isoparametric Curves on Surfaces.
	Curve Projection Projects a curve onto a surface. See Creating Project Curves.

	Blend Curve Creates a NURBS blend curve between between two end points on given curves. See Creating Blend Curves.
	Curve Offset Offsets a curve with a specified distance in a defined direction. See Creating Offset Curves.
	Split Curve Separates the splitable part of a surface from its non-splitable part to identify the transition areas.
	Intersection Creates an intersection curve between several intersecting surfaces. See Creating Intersection Curves.

Flyout for Creating Points


	Point Creates a point.
	Extremum Polar Creates an element of extremum radius or angle, on a planar contour.
	Extremum Creates elements at the minimum or maximum distance on a curve, a surface, or a pad.

Flyout for Creating Curves


	Circle Creates circles and circular arcs.
	Conic Creates conics.
	Combine Creates a curve resulting from the intersection of the extrusion of two curves.
	Intersection Creates an intersection curve between several intersecting surfaces. See Creating Intersection Curves.
	Parallel Curve Creates a curve parallel to a reference curve.
	Spine Creates spines normal to a list of ordered planes or planar curves.

Flyout for Creating Planes


	Plane Creates a plane.
	Planes Between Creates planes between other planes.

Flyout for Creating Boundaries


	Boundary Creates the boundary curve of a surface or the boundary point of a curve by selecting a surface edge or a surface.
	Extract Extracts a face or a surface edge. See Extracting Elements.
	Multiple Extract Extracts sub-elements that are joined into one element.

Flyout for Creating Grids


	Work on Support Work on Support See Working with a Support.
	Snap to point Snaps the points you create to the nearest intersection points of the grid. See Working with a Support.
	Work Supports Activity See Working with a Support
	Plane System Defines a number of planes in a given direction which can be used as reference planes or supports when creating other items. See Creating Plane Systems.
	Work on Support 3D Allows working on a set of three support planes. See Working with a 3D Support.
