spursnutter Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Is it possible to draw a polyline in 3dimensional space? I can do it on 2 flat axis but not a third. So say I am in world view and do a polyline at a right angle to axis X & Y but also I want to do it along Z axis also. Is this possible?

lpseifert Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 3dpoly command Be sure Osnapz is set to 0 if you want to snap to objects and obtain their Z value. Z values can also be edited in Proerties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lpseifert Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Not with 3dpoly; you'll need to change the UCS to get arcs on the intended plane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
