Hi Michael,
As you already know I thoroughly love using MOI. There is, however, just one function which I constantly miss as I use MOI, a function which requires me often to export my models into Wings3D or trueSpace7.51 to achieve, and that is being able to extrude a flat face or flat area along it's "Normal."
I do understand that "Normals" are a polygonal model aspect rather than a conventionally NURBS-based model aspect, but I wonder if there isn't some way to mathematically approximate Normal Extrusion within MOI NURBS. In most cases when I need this particular function within MOI it is a case of a flat surface I wish to extrude anyway. Perhaps there is an inherent MOI function which I am not yet aware of to accomplish this particular task, so since I run into this issue every day with MOI I guess I should finally just ask! ;^)
Thanks,
