Push / pull faces

Move a face to resize a solid.

Push/pull edits a solid by moving one of its faces along its normal, growing or shrinking the shape without rebuilding it. The offset is parametric — it drives the shape’s own dimension, so it only works on a basic shape. On a combined, generated, or imported body there is no dimension to drive: reach for Move face instead.

  1. Activate Push/Pull.
  2. Click a face.
  3. Enter or drag a distance to move it in or out.
