Create a rectangular
or cubical solid box.
The base of the box is
always drawn parallel to the XY plane of
the current UCS (workplane).
Box Creation Options
Use
the following options to control the size and rotation of the boxes
you create:
- Create a cube. Use
the Cube option of the BOX command to create
a box with sides of equal length.
- Specify rotation. Use
the Cube or Length option if you want to set the rotation of the
box in the XY plane.
- Start from the center point. Use
the Center Point option to create a box using a specified center
point.
To create a solid box based
on two points and a height
- Specify the first corner
of the base.
- Specify the opposite
corner of the base.
- Specify the height.
To create a solid cube
- Specify the first corner,
or enter c (Center) to specify the center
point of the base.
- At the Command prompt,
enter c (Cube). Specify the length of
the cube and a rotation angle.
The length value sets
both the width and height of the cube.
