Extrusion
Extrusion is a type of manufacturing constraint. It is similar to a single draw constraint, but the profile of the resulting shape maintains a constant cross-section along the draw direction.
Apply an Extrusion Constraint
Select the Extrusion tool and click on a design space to apply an extrusion constraint.

Align a shape control to a design space after moving it. By default, draw directions are aligned to capture the most likely orientation for that particular design space as it is oriented in space. | |
Align a shape control to the global axes. |
