MattG Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I am attempting to made a model of something. I have some 2d plans for it. There are a few simple parts that are made up of a variety of lines and arcs. I have gone through those parts and cobined them into a polyline. After I have created one big polyline i took it and extruded it. However it is just extruding the line and not the entire surface. Any ideas why this is happening? It is a technique i use fairly often, but this time it doesn't seem to like it. Matt Quote Link to comment
mike m oz Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 It will be because the polyline isn't closed. Double click on the extrude and look at the polyline. Quote Link to comment
GWS Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I sometimes get this problem. If you convert to the polyline to polygons (modify>convert to polygons) and then look at the OIP somewhere near the bottom the is a check box that has 'closed' next to it. Click on this to close the polygon and the extrude becomes solid. Quote Link to comment
