InsertSolidSweepLinear Solid


The Linear Solid command creates a solid by sweeping a profile or chain of curves along a linear path. In the case of a chain of curves, the program automatically combines the separate curves — which must be coplanar — into a single profile.

You can set the sweep direction of the profile using the options in the Direction drop-down list. The profile can be extended to single or both the directions using the Extension options.

In the preview of the solid, the Angle check box can be selected to sweep the profile in an angle. A shelled solid can be created specifying the thickness using the Thickness check box. The Offset check box is used to sweep the profile at an offset distance from the profile.
