Advanced Member popwfx Posted January 28, 2013 Advanced Member Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 This thread is old: http://3d-coat.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3890 Has it been implemented yet? If so, how do you take an edge loop at the edge of a retopo polys and extrude them all at once? (say along a limb or something) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reputable Contributor digman Posted January 28, 2013 Reputable Contributor Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Choose "Select" in the left tool bar menu. Select Edges in the top tool bar or if you keep auto on, you will need to select an edge before you see the extrude tool in the menu. Select one edge and then press the " L" key to select a row or ring of edges Under the commands menu, (left tool bar) choose "Extrude" Move away.... The left tool bar menu is context sensitive according to whether you choose Vertices, Edges or Faces... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must have missed the Extrude menu item because it changes when different tools are selected - so I guess I didn't see it. That works a treat.

Advanced Member popwfx Posted January 28, 2013 Author Advanced Member Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Digman, while we're on the topic Is there a way to slide a group of selected edges? Like if I want to only slide a few of the edges of an edge loop, I want to use the Select tool to select several edges to slide and but after I select them and then choose the Slide Edges tool, it deselects all my selected edges and appears to only let me slide one at a time. I'm sure it's easy to do, but is escaping me at the moment. thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member Zeddicus Posted January 29, 2013 Advanced Member Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Stay in select mode and after selecting the edges, hold down the RMB to drag them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member popwfx Posted January 30, 2013 Author Advanced Member Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 thanks, that works great. Still funny how there's 12 ways to do everything, but sometimes only one way for particular tasks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
