Place a box, cylinder or sphere

The Primitives group places ready-made solids — box, cylinder, cone, sphere and torus — with a few clicks or typed sizes.

  4. A cylinder works the same way: pick Cylinder, click its centre, type the radius, 800, and press Enter, then type the height, 2000, and press Enter. Sphere takes just a centre and a radius.

Good to know

  • Start on a face of a solid instead of the ground to place the new one on that face.
  • Each primitive keeps its sizes: select it and change Width, Depth or Height in the inspector.
  • Press N, or use the Plane buttons in the tray, to choose the plane the base is drawn on.

ModelingPush/Pull a facePush/Pull extrudes any flat face of a solid by a distance: raise a slab into a block, sink a pocket, or thicken a wall — and the solid stays a clean B-rep. ModelingMove (and copy) a bodyMove slides the selected bodies from one point to another, by a pointer gesture or an exact typed distance. Switch on Copy and it leaves the original where it was and places a copy instead.
