Additional options of the Extrude command
The
Extrude
command has some additional options to create a 3D geometry, complex fea-
tures, and so on.
Boolean
When you extrude a sketch, the Boolean options determine whether the material is add, sub-
tracted or intersected from an existing solid body.
Inferred
This option adds or removes material from the part geometry. If you extrude a sketch into
the part geometry, the material will be removed. Likewise, if you extrude the sketch in the
direction away from the part geometry, the material will be added.
Unite
This option adds material to the geometry.
Subtract
This option removes material from the geometry.
Intersect
This option creates a solid body containing the volume shared by two separate bodies.
None
This option creates a separate solid body. This will be helpful while creating multi-body
parts.
Limits
On the
Extrude
dialog, the
Limits
section has various options to define the start and end
limits of the
Extrude
feature. These options are
Value
