Creating an Extrude Feature

To create an extrude feature:

  1. Create a sketch.
  2. Click one of the extrude tools:

    Extruded Boss/Base on the Features toolbar, or click Insert > Boss/Base > Extrude
    Extruded Cut on the Features toolbar, or click Insert > Cut > Extrude
    Extruded Surface on the Surfaces toolbar, or click Insert > Surface > Extrude

  3. Set the PropertyManager options.

    To extrude in both directions from the sketch plane, set the PropertyManager options in Direction 1 and Direction 2. To extrude as a thin feature, set the PropertyManager options in Thin Feature. When you drag the manipulator to set the size, an Instant3D ruler appears so you can set precise values.

  4. Click PM_OK.gif.
