Summary
You can extrude either an open or closed object to create a 3D surface or solid.
If you extrude a surface, you will create a regular surface or a NURBS surface
depending on how the
SURFACEMODELINGMODE on page 2560 system variable
is set. To extrude meshes, use the
MESHEXTRUDE on page 1150 command.
The DELOBJ system variable controls whether the object(s) and path (if
selected) are automatically deleted when the solid or surface is created or
whether you are prompted to delete the object(s) and path.
You can use the following objects and subobjects with EXTRUDE:
