WEDGE (Command)

Creates a 3D solid wedge.

Access Methods

Tool Sets: Modeling tab > Solid panel > Solid drop-down > Wedge.

Menu: Draw > 3D Modeling > Wedge.

Summary

The direction of the taper is always in the positive X-axis direction of the UCS.

List of Prompts

The following prompts are displayed.

Specify first corner or [Center]: Specify a point or enter c for center

Specify other corner or [Cube/Length]: Specify the other corner of the wedge or enteran option

If the other corner of the wedge is specified with a Z value that differs from the first corner, then no height prompt is displayed.

Specify height or [2Point] <default>: Specify the height or enter 2P for the 2 Point option

Entering a positive value draws the height along the positive Z axis of the current UCS. Entering a negative value draws the height along the negative Z axis.

Center

Creates the wedge by using a specified center point.

Cube

Creates a wedge with sides of equal length.

Length

Creates a wedge with length, width, and height values you specify. The length corresponds to the X axis, the width to the Y axis, and the height to the Z axis. If you pick a point to specify the length, you also specify the rotation in the XY plane.

Cube

Creates a wedge with sides of equal length.

Length

Creates a wedge with length, width, and height values you specify. The length corresponds to the X axis, the width to the Y axis, and the height to the Z axis.

2Point

Specifies that the height of the wedge is the distance between the two specified points.
