Creating a Brick

On selecting the Brick option in the in the New Shape pop up menu, the Create Brick Volume Shape dialog will appear on the plot display.

Two separate locations (1st Corner and 2nd Corner) based on the global cartesian coordinate system need to be defined. These can be entered manually into the dialog or the Display Point Tool option can be activated to graphically create the brick by dragging the ball to the appropriate location for each corner. Pressing the Apply button will create a new node called Brick 1 under the Volume Shapes node. This process can be repeated as many times as necessary to create additional brick shapes. Press the Close button to complete the operation.

The properties of the brick volume shape can be viewed and edited by clicking on the appropriate node under the Volume Shapes node.
