View Solid

This command shows a solid model in the 3D Viewer Window. See the 3D Viewer Window section of the manual for a description of the viewer functions.

Solid Edit is an extra feature of View Solid that isn't part of the regular 3D Viewer command. To use the Solid Edit, switch to the Pick Mode by picking this button: The Solid Edit has functions to remove faces from the solid which can be used to clean up a solid. Removing faces will leave holes in the solid. To make the solid watertight and fill in the holes, you can run the Heal Solid command after View Solid. There are two modes to the remove functions. The Remove Single removes only the face that is picked. The Remove Radius removes all faces from the pick point that are withing the specified radius.
