  1. If nothing has been selected, select path(s) in the scene.

  2. Define the Radius of the circle used for the extrusion computation.

  3. Check Close extremities if you want a closed CAD surface as output.

    If the selected path is closed, the resulted CAD surface will be necessarily closed. So, the option is hidden if all selected paths are closed.

  4. Validate the command with OK, display the result with Preview or close the command with Cancel.

Note

Limit objects manipulation is available in this command with CTRL+SPACE shortcut.
