Hi Group,

Does anyone know why when these curves are extruded the distance parameter is opposite way round
or is it just my system ?

Hi Paul,

Can you post a picture to help us understand what you mean ?
Below is what I got when extrude the curve.

Hi Anis,

The geometry is fine but what I am questioning is related to the feedback and the "distance" box
whilst in the command. If you just click the circle then extrude notice the distance +- are correct
and relative to world coords, the other two curves have the opposite effect, meaning if I move the
mouse upwards Z+ it reports a minus distance ??

Hope this explains my confusion ;-)

Hi Paul,

I tried with another sketch, and work fine.
But for your case, thats same on my laptop.
I am confuse also....

Hi Paul,

The +- on the extrude is working from the direction of the drawn curve, a circle will be anti-clockwise, whereas the open curves you have will be drawn clockwise.
just draw a box using lines, first draw in one direction, then draw another in the opposite direction, you will see what I mean.


Anti-clockwise will give expected direction of extrude:-

Hi Steve,

I would of guessed at that myself but surely that is a bug no ?

Hi Paul, thanks for reporting this and for posting an example.

It is now fixed up for the first v2 beta.
