Creates 3D solid in the shape of a wall or series of walls.
You can create 3D walls with straight and curved segments of constant height and width.
You can create a 3D solid with POLYSOLID just as you would a polyline. The PSOLWIDTH system variable sets the default width for the 3D solid. The PSOLHEIGHT system variable sets the default height. You can also convert existing 2D objects such as lines, 2D polylines, arcs, and circles to 3D solids with a default height, width, and justification.
The following prompts are displayed.
Start point
Specifies the starting point of the polysolid segment.
Object
Specifies the selection of a 2D object to convert to a 3D solid.
Height
Specifies the height of the height of the polysolid segments. (PSOLHEIGHT system variable)
Width
Specifies the width of the polysolid segments. (PSOLWIDTH system variable)
Justify
Specifies where the width of the polysolid to be placed: at the center, left, or right of the polysolid profile or defining 2D object.
Next Point
Specifies the next point of the polysolid profile.
Arc
Adds an arc segment to the polysolid profile. The default starting direction of the arc is tangent to the previous segment. You can specify a different starting direction with the Direction option.
- Close
-
Closes the polysolid by creating a linear or arc segment from the last vertex to the start of the polysolid profile.
- Direction
-
Specifies the arc segment by setting a starting tangent direction and an endpoint.
- Line
-
Exits the Arc prompt and returns to straight-line segments.
- Second Point
-
Specifies the second point and endpoint of a three-point arc segment.
- Undo
-
Removes the most recent arc segment added to the polysolid profile.
Close
Closes the polysolid by creating a line or arc segment from the last point specified to the starting point of the polysolid. At least three points must be specified to use this option.
Undo
Removes the most recent segment added to the polysolid.
