Howto slice block with a spline?

Hi

I want to slice a solid box with a projection of a spline onto it, but how
do I do it?

I have the box and the 3D spline, what now?

Best regards

Do I use the SOLPROF to make the profile? It says that "You must be in a
Layout to use SOLPROF." I Don't know anything on layouts, I just want to
work i modelspace and plot drawings from this...

Best regards

Yes of course, thank you. But the spline is not a closed object and I can't
make an extrusion with two different lines. what now?

Oh, Im not at the CS-forum...

I try to send again.

As you can see it is a staircase. I want to project the upper spline (blue)
as a knife perpendicular onto the outer beam (white) to get a nice cut to
look at.

I have sent it in acad 2000/LT format now.

3D...

Thats the point! So what would you propose ?

Allthough it's the easy way, to send the drawing to you. I would like it
better if you could instruct me, so I am able to perform the trick my self
on happy ocasions when I need to slice a box with a 3d-spline

Best ...

I would use some self-made programs for that, which are not ready for
dealing yet.
So I would like to do some test for you.

Hi

Now what is it you realy want ; do you want this option generaly so you can cut
and slice however you want , or do you want a spiral stairway ?
Solids and Splines is very different objects, and if you want to "slice" with a
spline, you would need two Splines, to describe the panel formed between these
; ------- BTW, shuldn't the stairway carry steps or is it ment as one of these
toy things in a swimpool ?
Check some nice graphics where the solids do go round ;
