Skip past the modelling example for useful "how to" movies.




  • Easy Creation of Shell Geometries
    • Extruded: Extrude a Shell between any two points in space
    • Revolved: Create a Revolved Shell
    • Ruled: Make a Ruled Shell between hand-drawn profiles on any two planes in space
  • Graphical Editing for Full Design Freedom
    • Edit Shell profile graphically in any window: extrude, distort, tilt, rotate or revolve the Shell to fit your needs.
    • Freely define the Shell outline by drawing its contour by hand. Add skylights, fitting them smoothly to a flat or curved surface.
    • Create holes of any shape in any part of the Shell.
    • Customize any edge of the Shell.
  • Accurate Geometric Display on the Floor Plan
    • Shell display on the Floor Plan reflects its real geometry in 3D.

    Which all dovetails nicely with this reminder from Cadimage about their Extrusion tool
