Adding thickness to the geometry builder object

[kaushandutta]

I’ve created a geometry using the Geometry Builder class, and I would like to add thickness to make the shape appear more solid. What’s the best way to achieve this?

Assuming you want to model something like a pipe...

Create a ParityRegion with 2 loops for your inner and outer diameter circles, then use this as the profile for a LinearSweep or RotationalSweep. Specify true for "capped" to create a solid.

Will it be applicable for geometry like Hemisphere and Cube ?

[bbastings]

For a hemisphere with thickness, you could create a RotationalSweep using a Loop (below image) as the profile.

For a cube/block with thickness, you could create the ends as separate solids (below image).
