Autocad 3d Face To Solid
When prompted choose whether or not to erase the defining surface.
Autocad 3d face to solid. I have this attached with a lot of 3d faces. Click select object to tessellate and click the solid. Select the face that you want to convert. 2 start the command extrude.
Enter thicken on the command line. To convert a 3d face to a 3d solid. Enter a thickness value for the selected surface on the command line. I would like to merge the faces in to 3d solids to be able to save the file as stl for printing.
When you convert mesh objects to 3d solids the shape of the new solid object approximates but does not exactly duplicate the original mesh object. I have tried some different commands but nothing seams to work for me. With the 3d modeling workspace active click on the mesh tab click on the down arrow in lower right corner as shown. Convert 3d meshes to 3d solids.
You can control the differentiation somewhat by specifying whether the result is smooth or faceted with the smoothmeshconvert system variable. Explode the resulting mesh to 3d faces. Enter convtosurface on the command line. Thanks for the help esben.
