killerbytes Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 When I try to extrude the shape, it always extrude in the Y direction. How can I extrude it in the Z direction? thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil Johnson Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 The problem is that extrude works only in the z axis. The shape was made with coordinates that won't work the way you want. One quick work around... Make another shape with the z axis facing the way you want to extrude your shape- a circle will do. Convert the circle to editable spline. Attach the shape you want to extrude to the circle shape. Your shape will take on the coordinates of the circle object. Delete the circle shape.
