also not sure about the LT limitations, but in 2002 you can draw a polygon 1st, and use the 'object' variable to select that polygon to be your viewport?
example: you can type 'CC' instead of 'CO' for the 'COPY' command or 'TE' instead of 'DDEDIT' for the dynamic text editor command, to save valuable tenths of seconds.
ive done this procedure in AutoCAD R14, 2000 and 2002. im sure 2004+ is the same.
go into your AutoCAD support directory...
looks like theres about 5-6 hours of surface creation before i can get a 3d view of my basin. ouch, guess im back to the old drawing board... literally :)
hi all. i use AutoCAD 2002. i created a 2d drawing of a drainage basin with contour lines. i would like to create a 3d surface using the elevations of the contour lines. the extrude command only allows me to create a drawing that makes the contour lines look like steps. i cannot extrude...
