.SH "NAME"
solids \- Lists a summary of all the primitive shapes used in regions referenced by the list of \fIobjects\fR\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP \w'\fBsolids\fR\ 'u
\fBsolids\fR {\fIfile\fR} {\fIobjects\fR}
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Lists a summary of all the primitive shapes used in regions referenced by the list of
\fIobjects\fR\&. The summary is written to the specified
\fI file\fR\&. The summary is similar to that produced by the
\fBregions\fR
command, but with the addition of primitive shape parameters\&. The shape parameters listed will have the accumulated transformation matrices along the path from the listed
\fIobjects\fR
to the primitive shape applied (as would be listed by the
\fBlisteval\fR
command)\&. The
\fBshowmats\fR
command may be used to see the actual transformation matrices\&.
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.PP
The example shows the use of the
\fBsolids\fR
command to list a summary of all the primitive shapes used in regions referenced by a list of objects\&.
.PP
\fBExample\ \&1.\ \&List a summary of all the regions in a group.\fR
.PP

mged>\fBsolids shapes_summary group1 regiona\fR
.PP
Writes a summary of all the regions in
\fIgroup1\fR
and includes the region named
\fIregiona\fR\&. The summary includes detailed shape parameters for the shapes used in the regions\&.
