<li>select the type of elements which will be extruded (0D, 1D or 2D),</li>
<li>specify the IDs of the elements which will be extruded:
<ul>
<li><b>Select the whole mesh, submesh or group</b> activating this
checkbox; or</li>
<li>choose mesh elements with the mouse in the 3D Viewer. It is
possible to select a whole area with a mouse frame; or</li>
<li>input the element IDs directly in <b>ID Elements</b> field. The selected elements will be highlighted in the
