Press/Pull¶

Press/Pull (Q) moves a face in or out, and the body grows or shrinks with it. It is the quickest way to make a wall 2 mm thicker.

1. Click a flat face. Ctrl+click adds more faces of the same body.
2. Drag the arrow, or type a distance. A negative distance cuts.
3. Press Enter, or click empty space.

Letting go of the arrow does not finish the push, so you can still change the box before Enter. Esc drops it.

Stop at a face¶

Click another face instead of empty space, and the face moves up to it. T does the same: press it, then click the face to stop at.

Box options¶

1. Angle slopes the sides as the face moves, like a draft. The curved handle beside the arrow drags it.
2. Auto grows or shrinks the face. Join, Cut, New and Intersect extrude it instead and combine it with any body it reaches.
3. Along axis shows on the end of a hole. It slides the end down the hole, so the hole gets deeper. Along normal offsets the face.

Round faces¶

On a round face, such as the wall of a hole, the drag resizes it. The box starts at the size the face has now.

1. Pick R, Diameter or Offset in the box, or type r2.5, d5 or +0.5.
2. Shrinking a full round under a tenth of its radius removes the face when you press Enter.
3. Tangent faces follow, on by default, moves the faces that run smoothly into it too, so a slot narrows as one. Off, a size they cannot meet is refused.
