Toolbar: Modeling tool set  Solids - Edit tool group (expanded)
Summary
You can extrude, move, rotate, offset, taper, copy, delete, and assign colors
and materials to faces. You can also copy and assign colors to edges. You can
imprint, separate, shell, clean, and check the validity of the entire 3D solid
object (body).
You cannot use SOLIDEDIT with mesh objects. However, if you select a closed
mesh object, you will be prompted to convert it to a 3D solid.
