- RULED allows you to create a line mesh that approximates
- the surface formed by simultaneously moving a line
- (generator) along two director curves.
-
- Create the mesh by choosing from the following options:
-
- NUMSEGS - to divide the selected curves into a specific
- number of equal length segments.
-
- ARCLNTH - to divide the selected curves into segments of a
- specific length, with the last segment being of length
- equal to, or less than, the specified length.
-
- A temporary mesh is displayed.
-
- Indicate whether or not the lines are connected correctly
- by choosing an option from the NO/YES menu.
-
- Indicate whether or not you want to create lines in the
- cross-direction by choosing an option from the NO/YES
- menu.
-
- The NUMSEGS/ARCLNTH menu is redisplayed. You can create
- the cross-direction mesh using the same procedure.
-
- Indicate whether or not you want to group the entities.
- Choose NO to continue without grouping. Choose YES to
- create a group, and enter a group name.
-
- The mesh is created.
