[[Category:MGED]]

=inside=
__TOC__

==Syntax==
:inside {outside_shape_name new_inside_shape_name <parameters>]


==Argument(s)==
: '''outside_shape_name'''
:: Valid BRL-CAD Solid.

: '''inside_shape_name'''
:: Name of new shape

: '''&lt;Parameters&gt;'''
:: Parameters dependant on outside_shape_name


==Return Value(s)==
: No Return Values for this command.


==Description==
The "inside" command creates a new shape that is inside an existing shape. This command is typically used to create an inside shape that can be subtracted from the original shape to produce a hollow shell. The command is typically used with no arguments, and it prompts the user for all needed information; however, all the parameters may be supplied on the command line. If MGED is in [[MGED_Glossary|primitive edit mode]] when the "inside" command is issued, then the shape currently being edited will be used as the "outside_shape." Similarly, if MGED is in [[MGED_Glossary|matrix edit mode]] when the "inside" command is executed, then the current [[MGED_Glossary|key shape]] will be used as the outside shape.


==Example(s)==
: '''mged>''' inside out_arb in_arb 1 1 1 1 1 1
:: Create a shape named in_arb such that each face is 1 [[MGED_CMD_units|unit]] from the corresponding face in out_arb.

: '''mged>''' inside in_arb 1 1 1 1 1 1
:: Create a shape named in_arb such that each face is 1 [[MGED_CMD_units|unit]] from the corresponding face in the current [[MGED_Glossary|key shape]] or the shape currently being edited.
