CST2013: Extrude Planar Curve Mode

Modeling: Curves Extrude Planar Curve

In this mode, you may interactively select a planar curve that will then be extruded to obtain a solid shape.

When you first enter the mode, you will be asked to double-click on a curve to select this curve for the extrusion. By moving the mouse across the screen, all pickable curves at the mouse’s location will automatically be highlighted. As soon as a curve is highlighted, you may double-click on it to make your selection.

You may change the view at any time by using the standard view changing options.

After the curve has been selected, an extrude planar curve dialog box appears where you may specify a name, a thickness, a component and a material for the new shape.

You may terminate the mode at any time by pressing the ESC key.
