Solids Builder - Extrude
Extrude - creates an extruded solid from a plane figure (
circle ou
polyline) at an informed height:
Extruding is the most basic activity that generates solids.
It will solve most device models.
The Extrude activity has the following properties:
- Identification
- Name - extrude name
The name of the extrude must follow the naming rules
- Figure to Extrude - name of the flat curve to be extruded (
circleou
polyline)
- Height - a VB expression to evaluate the height value to extrude the figure
- Visible Object - indicates whether or not the point should be drawn in the preview

- Height Dimension
- Height Offset - distance between the dimension line and the line that Junctions the centroides of the extruded figure from beginning to end
- Show Height Dimension - indicates whether to draw a dimension at the height of the solid
- Height Template - a text template that provides the dimension
Use <> for de dimension(Example: Height = <>)
If the text is too big/small, or the sphere representing the point is too big or small, use the buttons ( A, a,
,
) at the top of the screen to change the preview
