To Work With Creating Polysolids

Create a Polysolid

1. Click Modeling tab > Solid panel > Solid drop-down > Polysolid.
2. At the Command prompt, enter h (Height) and enter the height of the polysolid object.
3. Enter w (Width) and enter the width.
4. Specify a start point.
5. Specify the next point. You can switch between straight and curved segments:
   • To create a curved segment, at the Command prompt, enter a (Arc) before specifying the next point.
   • To create a straight segment, enter L (Line) before specifying the next point.
6. Continue to specify points until you have finished creating the object.
7. To complete the object, press Enter or enter c (Close) to connect the start point to the endpoint.

Create a Polysolid From an Existing Object

1. Click Modeling tab > Solid panel > Solid drop-down > Polysolid.
2. At the Command prompt, enter o (Object).
3. Select a 2D object such as a line, polyline, arc, or circle.

   A 3D polysolid is created using the current height and width settings. The original 2D object is deleted or retained, depending on the setting of the DELOBJ system variable.
