    Default Creating a mesh from two faces?

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Hello,
    I wanted to ask if there is a way to create a mesh using two faces, I have no idea on how to do this since I'm new to autocad but in other 3d programs I have used this kind of thing is usually called "fill".

    I'll appreciate any help with this,
    Thanks

    I mean something like if I have two circle faces a meter a part and I want to create a cylinder from them, straight faces between the edge f one face o the egde of the other face.
    In my case instead of two circle faced I have two Identical faces that were made of a path.

    I have tried the loft tool but in place of the two faces it displays holes in the shapes of the faces, what I ask is something to use the faces and create a mesh but will leave the two faces as part of the mesh.

    do you want me to upload images about what I am talking about?

    Thanks

    Sorry, I can't do it right now but as soon as I'll get to my working computer I will.

    But what I think I found out how to do this, I have drawn a line from one surface to the other and then used "tabulated surface" since they are exactly the same but the only problem I have now is that the mesh that's been created is very rough on the edges(squarish) is there a way to make it more smooth and more like my first face?

    Thanks
