Dear Bloggers,
We sometimes may need the parts of existing 3D solid when working in 3D. This happens when getting a view or forming new models. Fortunately, there is ‘XEDGES’ command. You can get a 3D wireframe from any corner of the model you chose.
Fig.1
The chosen parts of the solid is transformed to wire in the current layer. By means of ‘CTRL’ button, you can select small parts of the solid instead of whole to form wires.

Hello Francis
If you move yor solid after using XEDGES command, yo’ll se the wireframe model. AutoCAD creates wireframe model of your solid on it.
