Extrude Vertices/Edges (Polymesh)

Use these settings for extruding vertices, edges, and borders in Interactive Manipulation mode.

Note: At the Border sub-object level, the caddy (or dialog) is named Extrude Edges.

Interface

Extrude Vertices/Edges uses the caddy interface when Enable Caddy Controls is on; when off, the standard settings dialog is used. For details on using the caddy controls, see The Caddy Interface.

Extrusion Height

You can set this as high as you want, but the actual size cannot extend beyond the vertices adjacent to the extruded sub-object(s).
