Creating Multi-sections Solids

Multi-sections Solid lets you sweep one or more planar section curves along a computed or user-defined spine to generate a multi-section solid.

This task shows you how to:

Create a Basic Multi-sections Solid

  1. Select the multiple section curves as shown:
    They are highlighted in the work area.

  2. Click Preview to get an idea of the feature to be created.
    You can note that by default, tangency discontinuity points are coupled.

  3. For the purpose of our scenario, you are going to use guide curves. Click the Guide box and select the four joins. The curves to be used must be joined. They are highlighted in the work area.
  4. Click OK to create the volume.
    The feature (identified as Multi-sections Solid.xxx) is added to the tree.
