Hi VaRMiT, do you mean you want to create a torus shape like a donut?

You can do that by drawing a circle and then using the Construct > Revolve command, draw the circle something like this:



Then select it and run Construct > Revolve. Pick the revolve axis off to the side of the circle like this:

Hi VaRMiT, it would probably help if you had an example image or sketch of what you're trying to do. Do you mean something like a sphere?

You can use Revolve with the axis touching the circle if you want to get rid of the hole.

Or if you want a flat area in the middle, revolve an arc instead of a circle like this:

If you, by any chance, mean something like a disk, then you just could use the planar command.

But the disc with Planar command is not a "solid" : it's just a Surface!

So make an Extrude for add thickness ad obtain a "Solid" volume! :)



But in this case you can use directly the native Cylinder function! :)
