create a surface between two level curves

[elevallegiulia]

Hello!
here is my problem:
I have to recreate in 3d a sort of hill.
I have the level curves... which for now I have only managed to bring to different odds z.
How do you create the surface between one curve and the other? ? ?
nn knowing cm to do, for now I only extruded vertically (to the bottom) these curves so that I can have an idea of the volume of the hill... .
But it's fine.
Can someone help me using autocad 2010?? ? Thank you.

Hi, if I don't remember you can do it with the loft command.

Hi, if I don't remember you can do it with the loft command.

Yes, loft, but it only works if the curves are either closed or all open, so it may be necessary to generate more than one surface. If I can afford, to do such a job I would not use naked and raw autocad even under torture. Since you're a student, take a look at autocad civil 3d...

first of all they must be all polyline. then the level curves must be all open or all closed. using the loft command, selecting one for a pruning to get your model. If the curves are all closed you will get a solid otherwise a surface. if the level curves are hundreds, well do it with autocad begins to become very challenging. ..comunqe these things you can find explained also in my book vol.2 autocad 2010&2011 3d design, free modeling and rendering. ciao gabriele www.gcedizioni.it

exact, maybe in educational version, with additional discount as enrolled in cad3d, as long as you buy it from our var...

as a dedicated alternative, at the reasonable cost of 200 bucks, there would be That's another solution.

first of all thanks to all, very numerous!! !
Go for the loft!
I can use it:
First of all I describe my case better: I have polylinese... more or less are quarters of circumference. . (because I have to make a quarter of a hill, and nn a whole hill).. clearly all stortarelle, nn parallel... I have them all at the same altitude. I have brought them to different quotas and I have eliminated the rectangle that in the plant makes me as frame to the design ( did I hurt? ).
apparently I have to click on the loft icon
then click on two "vicine" polylines and then send? ? ?
I don't know.
Can you imagine what the problem is? ?
Thanks again

I just "slept a little " and I got out qlcs of gorgeous doing this:
loft
select all the polylines of my hill (+ two!!)
enter
v
enter(i.e. nn touch no parameter of the table). ...
Right? ? ?
or does qlcn think I should do differently? ?
Thank you.

Yes.?

Look, my daughter's a student, but she's 10 years old. Is that okay, or does the university book take?

Yes, if you have a valid email account of the institution and the school is recognized as a training institution :wink:

Good to know, even if it doesn't do anything for now because at home I don't have enough pc to turn us autocad.

last 2 questions, or var, and then I keep silent forever.

1] My wife teaches in high school: Would it be enough for you to e-mail the institute, or would it take anything else?

2] does the word "made with an educational version" on the plots exist only in the autocad for students, or even in that for professors?

Thanks again, the vodka to the oak is here to withdraw. . .

That's enough. for more info tell her that contacts, or contact from the school manager, pico srl (national distributor of self-desk educational products)

2] does the word "made with an educational version" on the plots exist only in the autocad for students, or even in that for professors?

also for prof. and anyway in all products under license edu
