Help creating surface
(OP)
Hello, 1st time here. About a year ago I started on NX2 and recently have been working on NX3. My tasks mostly involve updating and designing fixtures,jigs and die components.
Today I needed to create an insert, 40mmx150mm with a "dome" of 10mm in height. I never have had a need to create this type of feature and need a push in the right direction. Thanks to all who may help

create the revolution, but only an amount <360 degrees (ie: 355 degrees). If the profile is an open section, this will cause the revolve to produce a surface, not a solid. Then go back and re-define the angle to be a full 360. Now, you have a revolved surface...

Or you can change the modeling preference to output a sheet body, perform the revolve, then change the preference back to solid body. (in modeling preferences)
