Adding solid geometry

- [Instructor] So in this video I'm going to start creating some Solid geometry based on the Reference Plane framework that I built previously, so the most important thing when building the Solid geometry is I want to make sure that I continue to associate it with the Reference Planes that I've previously built, and that therefore the parameters will be able to flex the overall shape, so to get started I'm going to work in the Ref Level floor plan view, so make sure that's the active view then come over here to the Create panel, and we'll start with a simple Solid Extrusion, so you click this button and that will take you to a sketch mode. Now you've got all your standard draw shapes over here, I'll choose a simple rectangle. Pick the intersection of two of my reference planes here, and drag diagonally across to the opposite intersection. Click again you'll see four padlocks, and I want to lock all four of those, so it's important that I lock them because that will constrain those…
