Title: extruting
Post by: caoimhe on February 28, 2008, 10:40:19 pm

i can get the eggplant to extrude but when i do the 5 sides for the base it goes up and down also not just to the five sides how do i stop this? its the only problem that i have come  across so far i just carried on last time and deleted the bottom pentagon but this gave me a hole in the bottom of the plant.

Hello when you are selecting the side faces you are alos selecting the top and bottom faces at the same time (though you cannot see them. Easy way to fix: Go to top view and deselect the top face using the middle button of your mouse. Then go to bottom view and repeat manoeuvre.

Dont forget control z is edit undo :)
