# Faces: Tilt and Facet/Smooth

## Working with Faces: Tilt and Facet/Smooth

To create more complex designs after sketching a shape or placing a primitive, you can use several contextual tools to modify your geometry. These operations include Tilt, Array, and Copy and Paste.

### Tilt Face

To **tilt a face:**

1. Select a face and right-click to see the context menu.
2. Choose the **Tilt** icon from the context menu.
3. Define the tilt axis by drawing a line.
4. Click a third point to start the tilt operation.

### Facet / Smooth Faces

If you hover over a face and notice dotted lines, this means the face is made up of smaller faces due to the face being warped. To **turn the dotted lines into model edges:**

1. Select the face or object that you want to change and right-click to see the context menu.
2. From the context menu, choose the **Facet Smooth Faces** tool.
3. Edges are automatically added where the face was previously smooth.

This command works in the opposite way, also: you can select faces that are faceted and select the **Facet Smooth Faces** tool from the context menu to hide the edges and make the faces appear smooth.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://windows.help.formit.autodesk.com/tool-library/tilt-array-copy-and-paste.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
