AutoCad 3D :: Polyface Mesh To Solid?

Jul 3, 2012

I created a 3D math surface using 3DPLOT. However my outcome is a polyface mesh and I need to convert it to a solid. I have already tried the "Convert to Solid" & "Convert to Surface" options in the Mesh tab but I get "Mesh not converted because it is not closed or it self-intersects." I also tried the f2s.lsp but I am unsure on how to select my object.

Here is my object: [URL]

It is basically a 3D plot of cos(x) + cos(y).

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Convert 3D Polyface To 3D Solid

Nov 9, 2012

I'm creating an iPhone 4 case so it has a logo on it for my teacher. I got the case from thiniverse. It was a polyface mesh. i tried to subtract from it but it didn't work. I tried convtosolid but it didnt work. I exploded them and selected the outside shell and extruded all of the objects inward. Then when i tried to union them together, some of them would union, but not all of them together. im trying to export it as a .stl so I can use it with a 3D printer...

I'm using AutoCAD 2010 Educational version.

AutoCad 3D :: Polyface Mesh To Solid With Mesh2Solid Plugin

Jul 7, 2012

I created something in Rhino and imported it in Autocad as .3ds file but the geometry is not a solid one but a polyface mesh and I cannot edit it with boolean commands, thus I cannot continue editing it...I found out that there is this plugin Mesh 2 Solid but it is not free and I cannot find a proper crack anywhere..I cannot find any other way to make mesh solid...

AutoCAD 2013 :: Converting Complex Solid Surface To Solid Model

Aug 12, 2013

I have finally created the shell of the complex surface that you see. This is only a section of the part because I cannot show the whole thing for proprietary reasons. I formed solid surfaces using the network command. The propblem is that it will not convert to a solid because the surface seams are not "water tight." When the network command created the solid surfaces, the surface seams do not exactly match the lines so there are gaps in all the seams. I have tried blending, patching, etc. and nothing works. how to convert this to a solid without losing the outlines and the shape?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Trim A 3d Solid Using Another 3d Solid As A Cutting Edge?

Aug 27, 2013

Is it possible to trim a 3d solid using another 3d solid as a cutting edge? I want to cut the edges of a dam using the natural ground surface (which is also a solid) as my cutting edge.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Hatching Looking Solid But Its Not A Solid Pattern

Dec 13, 2012

i am having a hatching issue, it seems no matter what hatch pattern i use and what hatch scale, alot of the hatch looks solid instead of the pattern i want, for example i am using currently ANSI37 @ Annotative with a scale of .20 and on the same paperspace page one plan with the hatch shows the cross hatching and the other one below looks solid (see attached) now i can go and say change the hatch scale and it reverts to the cross hatching, but then when i zoom out it goes back to "solid" is it a graphical issue?

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Adjust And Transform Images

Sep 5, 2013

I know that it can be done with MAP but ... is there any tool to adjust & transform images ?

That is : 

Choosing 3 o more points on screen and equivalents on image, see the results aply scale, move & rotation.... 

A custom tool maybe ?

AutoCad :: Polyface Mesh To Topographic Map

Mar 13, 2013

I have some topography I've converted from SketchUp to .Dwg and I was curious if AutoCad (or any of it's versions) had the capabilities of turning this series of meshes into a run-of-the-mill topographic map. For instance, a standard plan view showing elevation lines at say 2' intervals.

If any of the versions are capable I can definitely get the 30 Day trial and give it a go.

AutoCad :: Export Polyface Mesh Coordinates

Oct 26, 2011

I have a series of Polyface meshes imported from a Revit project.

(If this is doable straight from Revit that'd be good too, but I haven't had any success with that)

If I right click on one and select properties, I can clearly see where each vertex has an X, Y, and Z coordinate. For the purposes of a research project, I'd like to be able to automatically export all these coordinates to any ascii format for input into an algorithm. The dataextraction command does not seem to be capable of this and only exports the number of faces and vertices of each mesh.

AutoCad 3D :: Separate Polyface Mesh At Particular Point

Jun 8, 2011

Here's the file:

[URL].......

I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to separate a Polyface Mesh at a particular point. I would like to use the SLICE command but it's not working. I tried SUBTRACT on the solid but no can do either. Is there a way to do this?

I have a huge structural floorplan, and I want to divide it up into sections so when XREF'ed in my drawing I can load it in piece by piece, saving a huge performance hit.

AutoCad 3D :: Convert Polyface Mesh Into One 3D Face

Jan 21, 2012

I have a 3d model of a building and all of the faces of the building are of the type polyface mesh. If I use explode, each polyface mesh gets split into individual 3d faces. But, I'd simply like to replace each polyface mesh with a 3d face (not multiple 3d faces). Is there anyway to do this?

The reason I'm doing this is because I'm importing the building model into ray tracing software, but the software doesn't like the building when the faces are of the type polyface mesh.

AutoCAD 2013 :: 2D Solid Only Showing As A Frame

Oct 9, 2013

I have a user who has been using certain solids for years with no problems but now having one.

These are simple flat object types "solid" objects that are simple direction arrows. If I print it from model space they are filled in. If I look at it and/or print it from paper space (in a viewport) it shows up only as an outline of the arrow.

FILLMODE is set to 1, have tried 0 also, doesn't change anything.

Then I need to extrude it, but when I extrude, it's shallow. So this 2D polygon need to have face. I've tried 3DFACE but then I need to add faces manually. Is there any way to just specify this polygon and have it faced?

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Slice Solid With Surface

Jun 1, 2013

I'm using ACAD 2014 Win8 64bit.

I need to slice a cylinder with a surface but the slice command keeps giving error " Inconsistent face-body relationships".

I created the surface from a solid that I created using solid intercept between the cylinder and another solid that the cylinder actually passes through (a housing I have). In my attachment I do not include the housing, just the cylinder, the solid intercept and the surface from the a face of the solid intercept.

I tried increasing the U & V isolines of the surface, and scaling it up so that it isn't bounded by the cylinder, but that didn't work.

I'm willing to try any technique that achieves the same goal - I need the butt of the cylinder to contour to the housing so that I can do a JOIN and have a solid housing with a cylinder sticking out of its face. The inside of the housing is hollow with a 0.05 inch wall.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Freeze When Cursor Goes Over 3D Solid

Dec 3, 2012

Everything works fine until the center of my cursor passes over a 3d solid, the cursor then disappears, the spinning circle icon spins for sometimes minutes, and the display greys over, and I cannot click 'ESC' or Ctrl + C to abort this cycling. I have to wait, sometimes 30 secs, sometimes 2 minutes for it to stop freezing and the screen returns to normal. 

As I work in 3d solids a lot, this makes Acad 2013 unusable to me. Acad 2007 was not an issue with this problem I still have it installed as I have to revert back to 2007 to do anything with 3d solids in it.

AutoCad :: 3D Polyface Mesh - 2D Projections With Hidden Lines

Aug 30, 2013

I have a 3D model of a steel construction with the assignment to create special views of it and 2D projections for manufacturing of each beam individually. I tried many commands like Flatshot ( which don't work cause its a complex polyface mesh, and smooth mesh only makes a additionally mess), Flatten with hidden lines ( lines are mixed and changed), the LISP command SUPFLAT, but the hidden lines appear in the projection. SOLVIEW and SOLDRAW create views in the paperspace, which when export as a layout, become a mess too. The Lisp command M2S also does not work.
