Graphical Definition of Polygonal Surface

What is the easiest way to define a polygonal surface graphically?

Answer:

Basically, there are two options:

  • If no structural lines are defined yet, a polygonal surface can be defined by menu bar → "Insert" → "Model Data" → "Surfaces" → "Plane" → "Graphically" → "Polygon", see Image 1.

    1 Polygon
  • If structural lines are already defined, a polygonal surface can be defined by menu bar → "Insert" → "Model Data" → "Surfaces" → "Plane" → "Graphically" → "Select Boundary Lines", see Image 2.
