dimension than the input ones. Boundary elements around generated
mesh of plus one dimension are additionally created. All created
elements can be automatically grouped. Revolution can be used to create

<em>To apply revolution:</em>
<ol>
<ul>
<li> <b>Angle by Step</b> - the elements are revolved by the
specified angle at each step (i.e. for Angle=30 and Number of
- Steps=2, the elements will be extruded by 30 degrees twice for a
- total of 30*2=60)

+ Steps=3, the elements will be extruded by 30 degrees twice for a
+ total of 30*3=90)

</li>
<li> <b>Total Angle</b> - the elements are revolved by the
specified angle only once and the number of steps defines the
- number of iterations (i.e. for Angle=30 and Number of Steps=2,
- the elements will be revolved by 30/2=15 degrees twice for a
+ number of iterations (i.e. for Angle=30 and Number of Steps=3,
+ the elements will be revolved by 30/3=10 degrees twice for a
total of 30).
