Creating a Thick Surface

Thick Surface lets you add material to a surface in two opposite directions.

Before you begin: Create a 3D shape containing a surface.
  1. In the Object to close box, select the surface you want to thicken.

    In the work area, the arrow that appears on the extrude element indicates the first offset direction. If you need to reverse the arrow, click it or click Reverse Direction .

  2. In the First Offset and Second Offset boxes, enter the offset values and 6mm as the value.
  3. Select a Smoothing mode.

    Note:

    You can select Disable Tangency Continuity in the Lateral Edges area to avoid tangency continuity on the lateral edges.

  4. Click OK.
