      Is there an easy way to extend a face or plane to another object quickly.
      It would make fixing solids allot easier.

      Thanks

        Yes.

        (There are many ways, do you have an example?)

          yes, as an example i am trying to clean up this geometry pictured below.
          i have added a solid to another but the two did not exactly line up so i would like to extend the two sets of surfaces so that they meet in a single "ridge" (shown in red) but it is a pain to draw each edge out from each vertex and build each individual face. i would just like to extend each face out a few inches and then do the intersect model command then trim off the junk.

              wow thanks that is exactly what i need.
              the video is great but the sound is not working in my browser. (but i get the idea)
              thanks for the info!!!

              P.S i am using chrome windows 8 and have the latest flash (and my sound works for everything else), in case you want to report the sound issue to the blog site that is hosting you videos.
