ABSTRACT

The aims of this chapter are:

to demonstrate how 3D models can be saved as blocks for insertion into other drawings via the DesignCenter;

to show how a library of 3D models in the form of blocks can be constructed to enable the models to be inserted into other drawings;

to give examples of the use of the tools from the Home/Solid Editing panel:

3D Array – Rectangular and Polar 3D arrays

3D Mirror

3D Rotate

to give examples of the use of the Section tool from the Home/Solid Editing panel;

to give examples of the use of the Helix tool;

to give an example of construction involving Dynamic Input;

to show how to obtain different views of 3D models in 3D space using the ViewCube.
