Procedure

To create a donut:

  1. Go to the Create panel and choose Shapes.

  2. Click Donut.

  3. Choose a creation method.

  4. Drag and release the mouse button to define the first donut circle.

    The second circle can be larger or smaller than the first.

Interface

Rendering and Interpolation rollouts

All spline-based shapes share these parameters. See Splines for explanations of these parameters.

Creation Method rollout

The Donut shape uses the standard creation methods of Center or Edge. Most spline-based shapes share the same Creation Method parameters. See Splines for an explanation of these parameters.

Parameters rollout

Once you have created a donut, you can make changes using the following parameters:

Radius 1—Sets the radius of the first circle.

Radius 2—Sets the radius of the second circle.
