PROJECTGEOMETRY (Command)

Projects points, lines, or curves onto a 3D solid or surface from different directions.

Find

By projecting geometry you can do on of the following:

To trim the surface, set the SURFACEAUTOTRIM system variable to 1.

You can project any curve (line, arc, circle, ellipse, 2D polyline, 2D spline-fit polyline, 2D curve-fit polyline, 3D polyline, 3D spline-fit polyline, spline, or helix) onto any type of surface or solid.

The following prompts are displayed.

Project to UCS

Surface tab Project Geometry panel Project to UCS

Projects the geometry along the positive or negative Z axis of the current UCS.

Project to View

Surface tab Project Geometry panel Project to View

Projects the geometry based on the current view.

Project to Two Points

Surface tab Project Geometry panel Project to Vector

Projects the geometry along a path between two points.
