(3D only) Used to create a surface or solid of revolution — a complex 3D element that is generated by rotating a profile element (line, line string, arc, ellipse, shape, complex chain, complex shape , or B-spline curve) about an axis of revolution. Surfaces created by the profile element, as it is rotated, are indicated by arcs connecting the keypoints.

Type | Can be Surface (not capped) or Solid (capped). |
Axis | Sets the direction of the axis of revolution.
|
Angle | Sets the rotation angle. |
Keep Profile | If on, the original profile element is kept in the design. |
Construct Revolution. AccuDraw used to constrain the axis of rotation, defined by points 2 and 3. | |
