Queasy Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Hi folks- In the attached picture I have a lofted surface on the left, an extracted edge in the middle, and the surface I'm trying to create on the right. I've tried all the combinations I could think of but can't get the extracted NURBS curve and the additional geometry (a backwards L shape) to create a surface that I can extrude and continue edit. Any help is most welcome. Quote Link to comment
Gualterino Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Select both nurbs and convert to mesh, set the fill to solid. Then use the push pull tool to extrude the mesh. Quote Link to comment
Queasy Posted August 5, 2020 Author Share Posted August 5, 2020 Thanks, but that didn't solve the problem. Quote Link to comment
Pat Stanford Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Convert the Extracted Nurbs curve to Polys and then either Reshape the poly to add the additional edges or draw a second poly and Add Surface. That will get you a polyline/polygon that you should be able to extrude. Make a second NURBS curve for the backwards L. Select both curves and 3D PowerPack Create Surface from Curves. If you get two separate surfaces then use the Stitch and Trim Surfaces to get a single NURSB surface. You can then use the Push/Pull tool on the NURB surface to simulate an extrude. Convert to Generic Solids is you actually need a solid object. HTH Quote Link to comment
