Summary
You can create a sphere by specifying a center point and a point on the radius.
You can control the smoothness of curved 3D solids, such as a sphere, in a
shaded or hidden visual style with the FACETRES system variable.
List of Prompts
The following prompts are displayed.
Specify
center point on page 985 or [3P on page 985/2P on page 986/Ttr on page
986]: Specify a point or enter an option
Center Point
Specifies the center point of the sphere.
When you specify the center point, the sphere is positioned so that its central
axis is parallel to the Z axis of the current user coordinate system (UCS).
Latitudinal lines are parallel to the XY plane.
Radius Defines the radius of the sphere.
Diameter Defines the diameter of the sphere.
3P (Three Points)
Defines the circumference of the sphere by specifying three points anywhere
in 3D space. The three specified points also define the plane of the
circumference.
