Sphere by Center and Radius

 

To create a sphere by center and radius:

1.	Click the Sphere tool from the 3D Modeling tool set, and select Sphere by Center and Radius mode.

2.	Click to set the center of the sphere base on the working plane.

3.	Move the mouse vertically and click to set the height of the sphere above the working plane.

4.	Drag the mouse to the desired radius and click to set the radius of the sphere base. The radius can also be set in the Data bar.

The center and height, relative to the working plane, of the sphere is automatically established if the first click is on a snap point, for example a 3D locus or vertex on another 3D object.

When in a non-isometric view, the sphere is created centered on the working plane.
