Creates solids by revolving two-dimensional objects about an axis
Solids toolbar:

Command line: revolve
Current wire frame density: ISOLINES=current
Select objects: Use an object selection method
You can revolve closed polylines, polygons, circles, ellipses, closed splines,
donuts, and regions. You cannot revolve objects contained within a block.
Polylines that have crossing or self-intersecting segments cannot be revolved.
REVOLVE ignores the width of a polyline and revolves from the center of the
path of the polyline. You can revolve only one object at a time.
The right-hand rule determines the positive direction of rotation. See "Use
World and User Coordinate Systems in 3D" in the User's Guide.

point or enter an option
Start Point of Axis
