• Click Extrude.

  

• This command opens a new panel on the right.

  

  • Surface subproject: the surface subproject where to create the surface.

  • Layer: the layer where the mesh is created.

    • Layer of guide object: the used layer is the layer of the guide polyline.

    • Layer of the object to extrude: the used layer is the layer of the object to extrude.

    • Other layer: allows to select a different layer.

  • Create breakline: enables the creation of breaklines of the extruded object along the guide polyline direction.

• Select the object to extrude.

  

• Specify the insertion point on the object.
