Extruding Curves along Axes

 
 
 

You can create a surface or polygon mesh by extruding a curve along an axis.

To extrude a curve along an axis

  1. Select the curve to be extruded. You can select a curve object, U or V isoline, U or V knot curve, boundary, surface curve, or trim curve.

  2. Choose one of the following commands from the Model toolbar:

    • Create Surf. Mesh Extrusion Along Axis

    • Create Poly. Mesh Extrusion Along Axis

    If you did not select a curve in step 1, you can pick one now. This creates an object and the Extrude Curve property editor opens.

  3. Adjust the parameters as desired. For more information, see Extrusion Property Editor (Curve along Axis) [Properties Reference].
