Overview of Modifying 3D Objects
3D modeling tools range from entering precise measurements in the Properties
Inspector, to more free-form methods such as grip and gizmo editing. Some
methods are specific to 3D solids, surfaces or meshes. Other methods are
shared.
Convert to Other Object Types
In many cases, you can convert from one object type to another to take
advantage of specific editing capabilities.
For example you can convert selected surfaces, solids, and legacy mesh types
to mesh objects so that you can take advantage of smoothing and modeling
capabilities.
Similarly, you can convert mesh to 3D solids and surfaces to accomplish some
composite object modeling tasks that are available only for those objects.
Conversion is often offered as a choice when you start activities that are
available only for solids and surfaces.
