<h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Description">Description</span></h2>
<p>A tool to create more complex shapes from various parametric geometric primitives.
</p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Use">Use</span></h2>
<p>This tool will let you create shapes by creating
</p>
<ol><li>Edge from two vertices</li>
<li>Face from vertices
<ol><li>Select vertices bounding the face in the 3D view</li>
<li>Select if face should be planar</li>
<li>Click on <span style="background: #DDDDDD; border: 1px solid #888888; padding: 0px 5px 1px 5px;"> Create</span></li>
<li>Object will be created in 3D view and will be listed in tree view</li></ol></li>
<li>Face from edges
<ol><li>Select a closed set of vertices bounding the face in the 3D view</li>
<li>Select if face should be planar</li>
<li>Click on <span style="background: #DDDDDD; border: 1px solid #888888; padding: 0px 5px 1px 5px;"> Create</span></li>
<li>Object will be created in 3D view and will be listed in tree view</li></ol></li>
<li>Shell from faces
<ol><li>Select faces in the 3D view</li>
<li>Select if the shape should be refined</li>
<li>Select if all faces should be included in shell</li>
<li>Click on <span style="background: #DDDDDD; border: 1px solid #888888; padding: 0px 5px 1px 5px;"> Create</span></li>
<li>Object will be created in 3D view and will be listed in tree view</li></ol></li>
<li>Solid from shell
<ol><li>Select if the shape should be refined</li>
<li>Click on <span style="background: #DDDDDD; border: 1px solid #888888; padding: 0px 5px 1px 5px;"> Create</span></li>
<li>Object will be created in 3D view and will be listed in tree view</li></ol></li></ol>
<h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Limitations">Limitations</span></h2>
<p><br />
</p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Notes">Notes</span></h2>
<p>A possible workflow could be:
</p>
<ul><li>Draw a wireframe-model of your shape using the tools in the draft-workbench (for example line and dwire)</li>
<li>Create all faces with "face from edges"</li>
<li>Create a "shell from faces"</li>
<li>Create a "solid from shell"</li></ul>
