Extending a surface to a face or an edge without moving the whole body. SpaceClaim has this feature as do many others.
Maybe I’m not looking in the right place or there is a different technique I should be trying. Right now I’m measuring the offset and adding it numerically. A little convoluted to say the least.
Replace Face does this for face to face. It doesn’t do face to edge but that would be a nice addition.
Also, replace face is not the easiest to use. For single faces, the control is in a submenu. For multiple faces it’s at the top level. This inconsistency leads to frustration bc the control location depends on the selection.
I think it should be made more of a first class control and integrated into the control that appears when a face is selected.
Ps replace face is the same as extrude as a union except with the extrude tool you can actually drag the pointer to the face that you want to extrude to. That ability should be made available in replace face if not the control mentioned above.
