Subject: Extrude Shape in TriForma
Question
From: Jeff R	Submitted: 20 Aug 2002
I'm using TriForma and have a slab constructed from a complex chain, extruded to a form using "Extrude Shape to Solid". When I cut a section, the slab does not appear properly. All I see is two vertical lines at either end of the slab.

You might want to check that your extrusion "Type" is set to Solid rather than Surface. A simple way to check this without having to redraw the element is to render the view. Use Smooth render - if you only see a ribbon following the perimeter of the slab and nothing on its top surface, you'll know that's where the problem lies.
