Consistent 3D surfaces with added functionality

Like 3D Line, the 3D Surface tool combines existing functions for creating any 3D surface: 3D Surface from existing 3D Lines, Polygonal 3D Surface, Rectangular 3D Surface, Circular 3D Surface and 3D Polygon Surface.

Using Circular 3D Surface, you can define how the circular surface is to be closed:

• Sector uses lines from the arc end points to the center of the circle.
• Chord uses a chord between the arc end points.

An absolute highlight is the new 3D Spline Surface for organic forms. You draw a closed surface delimited by a 3D spline. The program creates cycloidal curves between the control points. Here, too, you can specify the number of points in segment in the input options.

Do the following:

Open 3D Surface and select the 3D surface element you want to draw. The program provides specific input options appropriate to the surface element you are creating so that you can customize the element for your needs.
