The 3D primitives are all pretty nifty and make modelling in 3D space very easy. I would like to see the capability improved by the addition of a few more primitive types to the set:
- Pyramid
- Regular Polygon (user defined number of sides)
- Polyline (with choice of vertex type)
The way the Extruded Rectangle and the Extruded polygon Tools works needs to be made consistant with the other Tools. The other primitives all draw the shape on the Working Plane first and then add the height. These two draw the height component first and then draw the shape. it should be the other way round so that the modelling is consistant with the operation of the Cylinder, Sphere, Hemisphere and Cone 3D primitive tools.
