Pick All

The Create X-Solid Cone dialog box temporarily closes.

Prompts you in the command bar:

• Elliptical/<Base> <0,0,0>: Click the origin point of the cone or type E + Enter..

• Diameter/<Radius> of cone: Click a point to define the radius of the cone
  or type D + Enter to define the diameter.

Preview

Displays a preview of the cone in the drawing in dashed lines.

View

The Create X-Solid Cone dialog box temporarily closes.

Displays the View Options dialog box:

Manipulate

The Create X-Solid Cone dialog box closes.

Displays the Manipulate dialog box to Move, Rotate or Align the X-Solid cone.

Move: Prompts you in the command bar to specify the displacement vector by clicking two points.

Move To: Prompts you in the command bar to move the origin point of the X-Solid cone.

Rotate: Type an angle in the Angle field or choose an angle in the list box, then click an axis button to rotate the X-Solid cone.

Align: Aligns the X, Y or Z-axis of the X-Solid box. Prompts you in the command bar to specify two points. The X-Solid cone is rotated about its origin.

Done: Creates the X-Solid cone.

OK: Reopens the Create X-Solid cone dialog box.

Cancel: Aborts the XCone command.

OK

Creates the X-Solid cone.

Cancel

Aborts the XCone command.

After primitive creation, perform operation:

Launches the XUnion, XIntersect or XSubtract command to be executed using the newly created X-Solid cone. You are prompted in the command bar to select one or more other solids.
