Extrude - how?

Recommended Posts

Ok now that I have a basic understanding of O2, the lod setups and can create models surpassing a simple box I wonder how I use the extrude feature.

By using the search I found some results but they didn't tell how to use it, only what it was or that it was included into Oxygen 2.

Surprisingly, the Biki also doesn't tell.

All I see in Oxygen is a little box named "extrude" but I can't click it, only change some numbers to the right.

edit:

ok, I use it by the drop down menu... it works, but I can't get the extrude options (according to the tip it's alt-G) to pop up.

I think what they mean by "extrude settings" is just the "extrude segments"

combo box (the one you mean when you talk about "changing some numbers

to the right"). Alt+<letter> is apparently the standard command template for

toggling tools visible or invisible in the editor (cf. the ones under

the "Window" menu option). Alt+G I suspect was supposed to toggle the

extrude segments tool but they forgot to actually set up that shortcut in

the editor.

I find extrude very useful. I recommend you set up a key for it. Then; to

extrude a face, you just select it, hit your extrude key then press and hold

down the RMB and pull to extrude. Don't know how I ever managed in the

earlier versions of Oxygen that never had this!
