Solids Builder - Revolve
Revolve - creates a solid by Revolve of a flat section (
circleor
polyline) on an axis (
vector):
The Revolve activity has the following properties:
- Identification
- Name - extrude name
The name of the transition must follow the naming rules
- Figure to Revolve - name of the section to be Revolved, must be a flat figure (
circleor
polyline)
- angle of Revolve - a numeric value or VB expression for the angle of Revolve in decimal degrees
- Starting angle - a numeric value or a VB expression for the starting angle in decimal degrees, counterclockwise start on the X axis of the Revolve plane
- Point - name of the point that marks the plan of Revolve as well as the center of the Revolve
- Vector - name of vector that marks the normal of the plane of Revolve as well as the axis of rotation
- Visible Object - indicates whether or not the point should be drawn in the preview

- angle Dimension
- angle Offset - VB expression that distances the dimension line from the position of the center point
- Show angle Dimension - indicates whether to draw a dimension at the angle of Revolve
- angle Template - a text template that provides the dimension
Use <> for the dimension(Example: aOR = <>)
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
