Solid PushPull |
The PushPull command extrudes a polysurface face to interactively add or remove volumes on the polysurface.
Steps
-
Select a surface.
-
Curves lying on the surface can be detected for finding regions.
-
Use the Invert option to swap the selected and unselected regions.
-
Click on a region to toggle its selection state.
-
-
Move the mouse to decide the extruding direction and distance.
-
The preview color changes to red if the operation is going to remove a volume from the object.
-
When you enter a distance, the mouse cursor location is the positive direction.
*The scriptable command, -PushPull, always uses the surface normal as the positive direction.
