To select multiple, connected/disconnected 2D block faces or faces of 3D blocks and
pull radially, you can do the following:
- Generate the mesh on the block face(s) (ignoring or capturing features as
desired).
- Select the Pull tool from the Edit group.
- Select the block face, or block faces to be extruded.
Note: You cannot
pull only some faces of a sheet blocking to solid blocking. A blocking must be
either entirely sheet blocks or entirely solid blocks, so when pulling sheets
to solids, make sure all sheets in the blocking are pulled.
- Select the Revolve tool guide and select the axis of
rotation.
- Leave Snap associated vertices enabled so that the
software can find the appropriate faces to associate the blocks to.
- Select the Up To tool guide and select the reference
face to pull up to.
The
example shows the use of the Revolve tool, along with the standard pull
operation, and carving out the blocking using a combination of Split and
Associate operations to generate the desired mesh.
