Twisted Extrude
Available in TurboCAD Platinum only
Creates a 3D object by extruding (sweeping) a 2D open or closed profile along a path normal to the workplane of the 2D object and imparting a twist. If you extrude an open profile, a surface will be created.
- If you want to select only a simple (single-object) curve, make sure Use Compound Profile is not selected.
- If you want to use a compound profile, which is a series of connected lines and/or arcs, select Use Compound Profile.
- If necessary, select Finish Selection of Profile to continue.
- Select the 2D open or closed profile to extrude. Move the mouse to extrude the profile, or enter a value in the Height field of the Inspector Bar.
If you select an open profile, the resultant object will be a surface.
If you select Two Sided Extrude, the solid extrusion will be created on either side of the profile.
