How do you Convert solid to 3D wireframe?

[Guest]

Hello,

What are the steps needed to convert a MC8 solid into a 3D wireframe Drawing?

Thanks,

Eric

You could Create/Surface/Next Menu/ From Solid and then Create/Curve/All Edges/All and then delete the surfaces or move to another level...

Thanks Jace,

Thanks for the good idea. This will work fine.

CADKEY has a one click solid to wireframe function.

good day,

Eric

In ver7 you can use createcurveone edgefrom solid, set edges to Y. This will give you only one entity at each edge of your solid. If you use all edges from surface you get an entity at the edge of each surface, and wher two surfaces meet you will get the same entity duplicated. Also with from sloid you will tend to get arcs where you have fillets and arcs where with from surfaces you tend to get splines.

From a solid create/curve/all edges/pick the solid then done then do it.. it will create wireframe and there are no duplicate wireframe unless you have your construction geomerty on the same level ..you can alway's run ram saver to delete duplicates...
