    Extrusion and Revolution primitives

    greetings to all!

    I'm facing some problems to create a geometry like a cube but with rounded vertices....

    So I thought to use an extrusion or a revolution primitives...

    But I don't know use or create this primitives so very well......

    Somebody would explain me how can I create these primitives?

    Best regards

    If ever I get stuck on something, and this is a good example I press 'help' button within the pdms, on my computer it is to the right of 'window' in the pull down menus.
    This gives me the option to search the database for 'extrusions/revolutions, not only does it provide you with discriptive explanation but also with pictorial explanations, its how I learnt about extrusions.
    Do you not have this facility?
