Description

Allows you to add profiles, to detach current profile and to convert solids to line.

Note: Linear entities accepted: lines, polylines, arcs, circles, elliptical arcs, ellipses and helixes. Open and closed splines are accepted only if they have default tangents that are not self-intersecting.

Methods

There are two methods to apply profiles:

  • Choose a profile from the library.
  • Choose a profile entity in the drawing.

Options within the command
