To Extend Faces (Repair and Construction)

Sometimes surface edges do not match on a translated part. To stitch a body into a solid, the edges must match. Use Extend Face to lengthen or match surface edges.

  1. Open a file that contains surfaces and enter the repair or construction environment.
  2. On the ribbon, do one of the following:
    • Click Repair tab Modify panel Extend Faces
    • Click Construction tab Surface panel Extend Faces
    .
  3. In the graphics window, click a surface edge to extend. At the selection point, a line extends to preview the distance the face extends.
  4. Enter a distance in the dialog box.
  5. Click Apply, and continue selecting edges to extend.
  6. When finished, click Done.
