Hi there!
I try to make a practice from the book AutoCAD 2017 3D Modeling.
In the description it says: Copy the circle at the top of one of the cylinders away from the shape, and create a planar procedural surface from it. Copy the newly created surface to the top of the four cylinders.
How can I do that?
Kind regards Peter

I have never heard the term 'planar procedural surface' but to do what you want to do I would use _LOFT and connect all your arcs. the end result will be a surface.
Hopefully this helps a bit.

CONVTOSURFACE and select the circle.
This is just closing the top of the "columns". The instructions are simply walking through specific commands to familiarize the students with them. A batter option, once you've become familiar with all the options, would be the cylinder command to make the columns solid all at once.

To quote help; a procedural surface is "A 3D surface object that has history and analytic information, but no control vertices". In this case the circle.

I have now copy the circle at the top of one of the cylinders away from the shape, and create planar procedural surface from it with the help of the Planar button in the Surface tab – Create panel.
The question now is how can I copy the newly created surface to the top of the four cylinders?

The problem I have now is to place the created surface exactly to the top of the four cylinders.
I have activated all object snap mode but it doesn’t work well! Should I disable some of them?

After I test same alternatives I found out that I don’t need to put 3D Object Snap On but I need to put Object Snap On and select the Center Object Snap mode.
