Can you explode a 3D face in AutoCAD?

You can explode them as many times as you want, but you’re still left with 3d faces. In the AutoCAD drawing that contains the 3D faces, execute the region command and select the 3d faces. Now explode the regions that you created and you’ll have lines with 3d elevations. Yes, it’s really that simple.

What is mesh in AutoCAD 3D?

A mesh model consists of vertices, edges, and faces that use polygonal representation, including triangles and quadrilaterals, to define a 3D shape. Unlike solid models, mesh has no mass properties. However, as with 3D solids, you can create primitive mesh forms such as boxes, cones, and pyramids.
