Covering Faces

To cover object faces, the faces must be united into a 3D sheet object. To cover the face of a 2D or 3D object, use the Modeler> Surface> Cover Faces command.

Covering the face of an open 2D sheet object that had previously been uncovered results in a 3D solid object. For example, for a box, when you select and uncover a face, the solid box becomes a sheet with five faces. When you then select that sheet body box and use the Cover Faces command, the box becomes a solid again with six faces.

To cover the faces of objects:

  1. Select the faces of the objects you want to cover.
  2. From the menu bar, click Modeler> Surface> Cover Faces.

    The object faces are now covered.
