Extrude along a 3D Spline. Is there anyway to extrude an object using a 3D spline for the path. I need to create a 3D view for a section of underground utlities and I have some electrical and communication duct banks that don't follow any straight lines. Is there any other method that I could use besides "extruding"?

Thank you cnetto. Message 2 of 7. AutoCAD Message 3 of 7. Message 4 of 7. The DELOBJ system variable controls whether the source objects or selected path are automatically deleted when the solid or surface is created, or whether you are prompted. You can use the following objects and subobjects:.

Thickness and width are ignored. The extrusion extends from the center line. The following prompts are displayed. Specifies the objects to extrude. Controls whether the extruded object is a solid or a surface.

Extrudes selected objects along the positive or negative Z axis. The direction is based on the UCS that was current when the object was created, or for multiple selections on the original UCS of the most recently created object. Specifies the length and direction of the extrusion with two specified points. The direction cannot be parallel to the plane of the sweep curve created by the extrusion. Specifies the extrusion path based on a selected object.

The path is moved to the centroid of the profile. Then the profile of the selected object is extruded along the chosen path to create solids or surfaces.
