Before calling this method:

  1. Call IModeler::CreateArc, IModeler::ICreateArc, IModeler::CreateEllipse, IModeler::ICreateEllipse, IModeler::CreateLine, or IModeler::ICreateLine to create curves that define the profile of the body that you want to extrude.
  2. Call ICurve::CreateTrimmedCurve2 to trim the curves of arcs and lines only.
  3. Call ISurface::CreateTrimmedSheet4 or ISurface::ICreateTrimmedSheet4 to create the profile body, passing in either trimmed arcs and lines or untrimmed elliptical curves.
  4. Set SheetBody to the profile body.

After calling this method, call IBody2::Display3 to display the extrusion.
