Flyout for Patch Creation


	Unified Patch Creates a patch from two, three, or four points, and allows projection as well as fitting of the patch on its support. See Creating a Patch from Points.
	Geometry Extraction Creates a surface on an existing surface. See Creating a Surface on an Existing Surface.

Flyout for Surface of Revolution


	Surface of Revolution Creates a surface by revolving a planar profile about an axis. See Creating Surfaces of Revolution.
	Helix Creates helical surfaces from wireframe geometry. See Creating Helical Surfaces. Note: This command is available in the ICEM Shape Morphing app.

Flyout for Patch from ...


	Patch From Curves Creates a surface from 2 to 4 curves. See Creating a Patch from Curves.
	Patch from Patches Creates a single patch from several adjacent patches. See Creating a Patch from Patches.

Flyout for Flange and Fillet Flange


	Flange Creates a flange from a reference curve. See Creating Flanges.
	Fillet Flange Creates a fillet flange from a reference curve. See Creating Fillet Flanges.

Flyout for Fillets


	FSS Styling Fillet Creates a styling fillet between two surfaces. See Creating a Styling Fillet.
	Advanced Fillet Creates fillet surfaces between sets of surfaces and curves used as support elements. See Creating Advanced Fillets. Note: This command is available in the ICEM Shape Morphing app.
	Tri-Tangent Fillet Creates a fillet surface tangent to three surfaces. See Creating Tri-Tangent Fillets. Note: This command is available in the ICEM Shape Morphing app.
	Corner Fillet Creates corner fillet surfaces between sets of surfaces and curves used as support elements. See Creating Corner Fillets. Note: This command is available in the ICEM Shape Morphing app.

Flyout for Offset


	Surface Offset Creates an offset surface, based on an existing surface. See Creating Offset Surfaces.
	Global Surface Offset Creates offset surfaces with constant distance from the original surfaces. See Creating Global Offset Surfaces. Note: This command is available in the ICEM Shape Morphing app.

Flyout for Profile


	Sweep Creates a profile either along a guide curve or by several profiles without using a guide curve. See Creating Swept Surfaces.
	Tubing Creates open or closed tube surfaces with a specified radius. See Creating Tube Surfaces. Note: This command is available in the ICEM Shape Morphing and ICEM Shape Design for Aero apps.
	Accelerated Surface Creates boundary surfaces of a stamped area are created with a constant given distance from a curve selected as spine curve. See Creating Accelerated Surfaces. Note: This command is available in the ICEM Shape Morphing app.

Flyout for Modeling

Note: This command is available in the ICEM Shape Morphing app.


	Overcrowning Modifies surfaces in a point directly by the specified value. See Overcrowning Surfaces.
	Shape Mapping Maps a set of elements on a reference surface to a target surface. See Mapping Shapes.
	Shape Modeling Modifies curves and surfaces via a reference geometry. See Modeling Shapes.
