3__ Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 this is just an illustration for a polyextrude request (see attatchment): the present workaround is to horizontally scale after extrusion, which currently does some unwanted rotation (http://www.sidefx.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1557), or to edit. -cpb [from second post]: ... this is just an illustration of how any modification of global poly-extrude should not work with concave extrudes. In the illustration the 3dsmax extrude maintains an equal distance along all new side edges instead of keeping the relative angle of the extruded faces. The ideal would maintain this relative angle as well as the angles between extruded faces and side faces. -cpb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaJuice Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 Another request while were at it. When extruding edges, it would be nice if the transform handle was placed in the center of the selected edges instead of placing it on the first edge you picked. Makes scaling much more intuative.

Yeah, that would be great for Global mode. Would you want it for local mode too though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 meshsmooth, right-click on your extrude handle and turn off "Local Control". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted April 27, 2004 Share Posted April 27, 2004 The great new news is that this issue has been solved in a version of 6.5 after 6.5.51. (Thanks George at Side Effects!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
