Description
You can now extend the ply boundary by joining it with one or more closed loop contours.

2. Extension contour
3. Extended ply boundary
You can select an existing closed loop contour. Alternatively, you can create a new closed loop contour on-the-fly using curves and edges.
The extend action is always performed inside the layup quilt.
