The <b>Extruded boss</b> operation allows you to easily add material on a \b solid by extruding a profile along the normal to its plane.
\image html extruded_boss_example.png
To produce the <b>extruded boss</b>:
<ol>
<li>Draw the \b profile of the extrusion. It can be:
<ul>
<li> a <a href="create_sketcher_page.html">\b Sketch </a> drawn on a planar face of the object you want to boss.</li>
<li> any closed edge or wire of the desired shape (circle, ellipse ...).</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li> In the <b>Main Menu</b> select <b>Operations - > Extruded Boss</b> or click on
\image html extruded_boss.png </li>
<li> Fill in the dialog box fields:
\image html extruded_boss_dlg.png </li>
</ol>
The input arguments are:
- The <b>initial shape</b> you want to add material on. It must be a solid or a compound made of a single solid.
- The \b profile. It must be a \b closed edge or wire and it must be \b planar.
- The \b height of extrusion. It's calculated from the <b>base profile</b> along the normal to its plane.
And optionnaly:
- A <b>draft angle</b> in degrees. Activated by clicking on \image html draft.png
The direction can be reversed by pushing the <b> Change direction </b> button: \image html change_direction.png
This functionality is available via the textual interface with the command:
