Experience Level: Intermediate

Draws a three-dimensional box as an ACIS solid, defined by length (x-axis), width (y-axis), and height (z-axis).

To specify the corners of the box

To place the corner at a different location, specify a point defining it.


  1. Specify the first point.
  2. Specify a point for the opposite corner.
  3. Specify the height .

 

Specify first corner of [Center]: Specify a point at a corner of the box.

Specify other corner or [Cube/Length]: By default, the length and width of the box are the same. Specify a point at the opposite corner of the rectangle that defines the length of the box.

Specify height or [2Point]: Specify the height of the box along the z-axis, or choose 2Point to define the height as the distance between the two specified points.

To specify the center and one corner of the box

Specify first corner of [Center]: Choose Center.

Specify center: Specify a point at the center of the box.

Specify other corner or [Cube/Length]: Specify a point at one corner of the box.

Specify height or [2Point]: Specify the height of the box along the z-axis, or choose 2Point to define the height as the distance between the two previously defined points.

To specify separate length and width dimensions

Specify first corner of [Center]: Specify a point at a corner of the box.

Specify other corner or [Cube/Length]: Choose Length.

Specify length: Specify the length of the box along the x-axis.

Specify width: Specify the width of the box along the y-axis.

Specify height or [2Point]: Specify the height of the box along the z-axis, or choose 2Point to define the height as the distance between the two previously defined points. 

 

  1. Specify the length of the box.
  2. Specify the width of the box.
  3. Specify the height of the box.

 

 

To create a perfect cube

Specify first corner of [Center]: Specify a point at a corner of the box.

Specify other corner or [Cube/Length]: Choose Cube.

Specify other corner or [Cube/Length]: Specify a point at the opposite corner of the rectangle that defines the length of the cube.
