Description

Creates 3D solids by thickening surfaces, their faces, faces of 3D solids, regions and wire entities by specifying the thickness value.

The following wire entities are accepted: lines, polylines, circles, ellipses, arcs, helices, splines.

Note: If you thicken a multi-face surface of several adjacent faces of one 3D solid/surface, then the corresponding faces remain adjacent on the opposite side of the new 3D solid(s). This differs the DMTHICKEN command from DMEXTRUDE.
Note: When a wire entity is selected, a circle with the radius of the specified thickness value is swept along the wire.

Options

SIngle side
Adds the thickening in the specified direction.
Both sides
Adds thickening in both directions.
