Topics in this section
- Line
Use Line to create a free-form spline made of multiple segments. - Rectangle
Use Rectangle to create square and rectangular splines. - Circle
Use Circle to create closed circular splines made of four vertices. - Ellipse
Use Ellipse to create elliptical and circular splines. - Arc
Use Arc to create open and closed partial circles made of four vertices. - Donut
Use Donut to create closed shapes from two concentric circles. Each circle is made of four vertices. - NGon
Use NGon to create closed flat-sided or circular splines with any number (N) of sides or vertices. - Star
Use Star to create closed star-shaped splines with any number of points. Star splines use two radii to set the distance between the outer points and inner valleys. - Text
Use Text to create splines in the shape of text. - Helix
Use Helix to create open flat or 3D helices or spirals. - Egg
Use Egg to create an egg shape. - Section
Section is a special type of spline that generates shapes based on a cross-sectional slice through geometry objects. - Freehand
Use Freehand to create hand-drawn splines directly in the viewport.
