Create a Solid Sphere

Concept

Procedure

Quick Reference

You can create a solid sphere.

When you specify the center point, the sphere is positioned so that its central axis is parallel to the Z axis of the current user coordinate system (UCS).

You can also use any of the following options in the SPHERE command to define the sphere:

• 3P (Three Points). Defines the circumference of the sphere by specifying three points anywhere in 3D space. The three specified points also define the plane of the circumference.
• 2P (Two Points). Defines the circumference of the sphere by specifying two points anywhere in 3D space. The plane of the circumference is defined by the Z value of the first point.
• TTR (Tangent, Tangent, Radius). Defines the sphere with a specified radius tangent to two objects. The specified tangency points are projected onto the current UCS.
