Command line SOLIDEDIT
Copy Faces on 3D Solids
You can copy faces on a 3D solid object. AutoCAD copies selected faces as
regions or bodies. If you specify two points, AutoCAD uses the first point as
a base point and places a single copy relative to the base point. If you specify
a single point, and then press
ENTER, AutoCAD uses the original selection
point as a base point and the next point as a point of displacement.
To copy a face on a solid object
1 From the Modify menu, choose Solids Editing ➤ Copy Faces.
2 Select the face to copy (1).
3 Select additional faces or press
ENTER to copy.
4 Specify the base point for the copy (2).
5 Specify the second point of displacement (3).
6 Press
ENTER to complete the command.
Note Use EXTRUDE to extrude a copied face.
