EdgeSurf

Works with Bricscad (Windows) Classic and Pro, Bricscad (Linux) Classic

Creates a 3D Coons mesh surface patch between four lines, forming a closed shape (short for "edge surface").

Accessing the Command

command bar: edgesurf

menu bar: Draw | Meshes | Coons Surface

toolbar: 3D Draw | 3D Surfaces |

: edgesurf

Prompts you in the command bar:

Select the first of four connected linear entities for edge surface: (Pick an entity.)

Select second edge: (Pick another entity.)

Select third edge: (Pick a third entity.)

Select last edge: (Pick a fourth entity.)
