Hi Carlos, please give the attached version a try, note that this version is named RotateAndExtrudeFace2 with a 2 on the end so you must also set up your shortcut as RotateAndExtrudeFace2 as well. On this one instead of selecting an edge the script automatically looks for parallel edges in the face and shows you the median lines between them. Then instead of picking an edge of the face you pick one of those median lines to be the rotation axis.

Also there was a bug in the first version script when the script gathered the end points of the boundary, just by luck the bug didn't happen to impact the functionality. But if someone wants to use this script as a reference for gathering the endpoints of a trimming boundary loop in the proper order, use the one in this script rather than the previous one.
