Push and pull tool
-
Susan, this would only work if those "objects" he is mentioning would already have some thickness. If they are true "outlines" only (i.e. 2D faces), all of them would just be lifted into the air.

TRUE. WAS ASSUMING. silly.

See attached SU file for ideas.
Jean,
Once again you proved to obtain a solution with basic SU tools, great!!
We tend to forget the possibilities of more 'complex' ++ or +/- selections with Crtl and Shift.
Thanks for sharing.(Wo3Dan)

Very witty, Jean!

this a great tut, jean. very useful indeed.
gai, we should move jean's tuts to the tutorials section, don't you think so?

I agree, Edson!
And don't forget that both you and Jean are mods who can easily do this!
-
no, i do not forget that. i am just not sure how to do it.
-
Hm...
It's quite easy, Edson! See here:

gotcha.

I wrote a random pushpull script ages ago - it's still available free on Didier's site and elsewhere...
IF you make the max. and min. variation in the 'range' then it push/pulls the selected faces by the same amount in one go...
Its function with a range and allowing random or stepped amounts of push/pulling gives similar results to the 'Grebble' script that's under discussion in other threads...

Jean (Johnny) Lemire,
You have a gift for making what seems impossible easy.
Thanks!

Hi All,
You could also used the attached Ruby script.
Description:
Push pull faces along a vector given with 2 clicks, in any direction.Instruction/Usage:
Install:Just drop it in Plugins folder.
Menu: ContextHope that helps.

thanks, brad. indeed, it allows one to push-pull in directions the straight tool will not allow. i played with it for a short while and came across some unexpected results, like being able to copy a face along one of its sides (see attached).
i wonder if anyone who has been using it for some time can tell us some practical ways to use it.
-
why not just use the "push/pull multiple faces" ruby for this? That's what I use
