rubyred67 Posted October 15, 2010 Posted October 15, 2010 Hey, I'm wondering how to create a solid object from an outline? I imported a spline (all lines are connected) from autocad. Thanks Quote
Cad64 Posted October 15, 2010 Posted October 15, 2010 Select the spline, right click and choose "Convert to Editable Poly". Switch to "Polygon" selection mode, window select all the polygons of your object, click "Extrude" and specify the extrusion amount. Switch to Border selection mode, click the open edge on the backside of the object and then click "Cap" Quote
rubyred67 Posted October 18, 2010 Author Posted October 18, 2010 the object disappears as soon as I convert Quote
Cad64 Posted October 18, 2010 Posted October 18, 2010 That means it's probably not a closed shape then. Go back into Autocad and check your geometry. Make sure there are no gaps in the spline. Quote
