Extruding Topology with Transpose Line

Hi all,

I was watching Rafael Grasetti’s sculpting time lapses and I’ve run into something.

He masks and extracts an area, then clears the mask on the new mesh and with the transpose line he extrudes the mesh. I thought he was holding CTRL while dragging it from the center circle but it just duplicates the mesh and doesn’t extrude. How can I extrude the mesh as the same way as he does ?

Hello @ltwin ,

Transpose Extrude requires the mesh be partially masked. It will extrude the unmasked portion when you hold down Ctrl while dragging on the middle circle. If nothing is masked it will duplicate the mesh. If this doesn’t explain what you are experiencing then there is some other factor at work with your mesh.

I get it, thanks for the reply.
