After launching FreeCAD, the Subtractive Box is the one displayed in the toolbar. To get the Sphere, click on the down arrow besides the visible icon and select Subtractive Sphere in the menu.</li>
<li> Set the Primitive parameters and <a href="Part_Attachment.html" title="Part Attachment">Attachment</a>.</li>
<li> Click <span style="background: #DDDDDD; border: 1px solid #888888; padding: 0px 5px 1px 5px;">OK</span>.</li>

<p>The Sphere can be edited after its creation in two ways:
</p>
<ul><li> Double-clicking it in the Model tree, or by right-clicking and selecting <b>Edit primitive</b> in the contextual menu; this brings up the Primitive parameters.</li>
<li> Via the <a href="Property_editor.html" title="Property editor">Property editor</a>.</li></ul>
