Options

• :PARTS - Specify the part you create or add material to. The system defaults to the active part, if it's empty. If not, the system defaults to a new part name.
• :TOOL_PART - Specify the face part to extrude. If the active part is a face part, it is the default entry.
• :TO_PLANE - Specify the plane you want the face to extrude to.
• :EXTRUDE_DIRECTION - Specify the extrude direction. (MEASURE_DIR_3D_SA is a subaction for defining a vector direction.)
• :DISTANCE - Specify the distance you want to extrude.
• :KEEP_TOOL - Specify if you want to keep the face part after the operation (:YES) or delete it (:NO) (optional). The default is :YES.
