Creating a Drape Surface

You can automatically create a rectangular, draped NURBS surface over an object, up to a specific Z plane value. This is useful for representing surfaces including curtains, tablecloths, product packaging, and (with Vectorworks Architect or Landmark) site models.

To create a drape surface:

1. Select one or more objects to be draped.
