Summary
Select a line, arc, circle, ellipse, or polyline to sweep in a straight path. Then
select a line or polyline to determine the first and last points of a vector that
indicates the direction and length of the polygon mesh.
The MESHTYPE (page 1408) system variable sets which type of mesh is created.
Mesh objects are created by default. Set the variable to 0 to create legacy
polyface or polygon mesh.
For polygon meshes, TABSURF constructs a 2 by n mesh, where n is determined
by the SURFTAB1 (page 1500) system variable. The M direction of the mesh is
always 2 and lies along the direction vector. The N direction lies along the
path curve. If the path curve is a line, arc, circle, ellipse, or spline-fit polyline,
tabulation lines are drawn that divide the path curve into intervals of equal
