      Hey guys & girls,

      I'm just creating a site plan and have all the outlines of various fences, etc draped across it and am looking to extrude them all directly upwards by 1800mm - which should give me fences that follow the contours of the land - much like how the extrude in 3ds max works on an open spline.

      I was just wondering if anybody could point me in the direction of a plugin that does such a thing, should one exist? I have had a search, and whilst I've found some wonderful extrude plugins, none of them seem to do quite what i'm after.

      Many thanks in advance.

        Use for example the "Vector Pushpull" tool of Fredo's Joint pushpull plugin.

          Kind of, though I am working with basic lines, to create basic fences (thin, not solid), thus there is no face to select to extrude; only lines.

              Use for example the "extrude lines along vector" tool of Didier Bur's projection tools.

                  There are excellent search tools on SCF... and better ones within specific pages...
                  PluginStore > Search 'Extrude' ?

                  and 'Extrusion' and 'Loft' are also good search keys...

                  My Extrude Toolset and then there's also Fredo's CurviLoft do most of what you might hope for ๐Ÿ˜•
