Modify Surfaces Toolbox
The tools in the Modify Surfaces toolbox are used to create new surfaces from the union, intersection, or difference between surfaces; to trim, extend, stitch, split, punch, or extrude surfaces; or to change B-spline specific attributes.
All tools in a toolbox are not always visible by default. To see all tools, right-click in the toolbox and select Show All from the menu.
| To | Select in the Modify Surfaces toolbox |
|---|---|
| Trim two elements to their common intersection. | Trim Surfaces |
| Punch a hole in a surface, or to project a B-spline curve onto a surface. | Trim Surfaces by Curves |
| Construct a fillet of constant radius between two surfaces. | Fillet Surfaces |
| Construct a blend surface between two B-spline surfaces along their rail curves. | Fillet Surface along Curves |
| Construct a blend surface from two surfaces. | Blend Surfaces |
| Construct a B-spline surface extension to an element. | Extend Surface |
| Construct a B-spline surface that is offset from another surface. | Offset Surface |
| Merge a surface to the edge of a second surface. | Merge Surface to Edge |
| To stitch two surfaces together to form a single surface. | Stitch Surfaces |
| Used to combine two or more B-spline surfaces that share common edges. | Combine Surfaces |
| (3D only) Used to perform a partial delete on a surface or solid (shape, cone, sphere, extruded surface, surface of revolution, or B-spline surface) along its rule lines, in the U or V direction. | Split Surface |
| Used to modify the shape of a surface by manipulating handles. | Surface Handlebar |
| Used to twist a B-spline surface, or a mesh element, about a defined axis. | Twist Surface |
| Reverse the sense of the boundaries of a B-spline surface. or Remove one or all boundaries (holes) from a B-spline surface. |
Untrim Surface |
| Used to show or hide the control polygon, or to edit the number of control points and/or the number of rule lines for a B-spline surface. | Edit Surface Control Points |
