3) trace over the 3d polygon with the 2d polygon tool. (or convert to 2d polygon)
4) select and extrude the 2d polygon.
5) delete the 3d polygon.
6) go back to my original view.
The resulting object would have to be an editable extruded 2d polygon. I posted a request for a tool which would avoid the above tasks at the VW mailing list and it seems that such a tool would be difficult to create in vectorscript.

Question

Here's what I would do to extrude a 3d polygon:
1) set my working plane on the 3d polygon.
2) switch my view along this working plane.
3) trace over the 3d polygon with the 2d polygon tool. (or convert to 2d polygon)
4) select and extrude the 2d polygon.
5) delete the 3d polygon.
6) go back to my original view.
The resulting object would have to be an editable extruded 2d polygon. I posted a request for a tool which would avoid the above tasks at the VW mailing list and it seems that such a tool would be difficult to create in vectorscript.
