Description

Part Primitives opens a dialog to create any of the parametric geometric primitives defined in the Part Workbench.

Primitive shapes that can be created with the Part Workbench.

Geometric Primitives

Some of the available (parametric) geometric primitives that are possible:

Plane: inserts a simple parametric plane 10 x 10 mm, with the parameters of position, length, and width.
Box/Cube: inserts a parametric, rectangular cuboid, geometric primitive into the active document.
Cylinder: Inserts a simple parametric cylinder, with position, angle, radius and height parameters in to he active document.
Cone: Inserts a parametric truncated Cone in to the active document.
Sphere: Inserts a parametric sphere, with position, angle1, angle2, angle3 and radius parameters.
Ellipsoid: Inserts a parametric Ellipsoid solid in to the active document.
Torus: Inserts a simple parametric torus, with position, angle1, angle2, angle3, radius1 and radius2 as parameters in to the active document.
Prism introduced in version 0.14*: Inserts a solid defined by a regular polygon cross section and a height in to the active document.
Wedge: Inserts a parametric Wedge object in to the active document.
Helix: Inserts a Helix geometric primitive in to the active document. Common usage for Helix is creating threads.
Spiral introduced in version 0.14*: Inserts a Spiral geometric primitive in to the active workbench.
Circle: Inserts a circular curved edge in to the active document.
Ellipse: Inserts an elliptical curved edge in to the active document.
Point (Vertex): Inserts a Point (vertex) geometric primitive in to the active document.
Line (Edge): creates a simple line segment delimited by two vertices.
Regular Polygon introduced in version 0.14*: Inserts a RegularPolygon geometric primitive in to the active document.
