About this Block
What it does: The Extrude Profile block extrudes a profile based on the profile input, distance, and direction. The profile is created using the Section Body block, where a Plane cuts through an Implicit Body. Common uses:- Custom shapes from 2D profiles

Profile (old), Scalar, Vector
Create an extrusion from a profile, distance, and direction.Inputs
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Profile | Profile (old) | Profile to extrude. |
| Distance | Scalar | Distance to extrude along direction. |
| Direction | Vector | Direction of extrusion. |

Profile, Scalar, Scalar, Bool, Scalar Field, Shell Enum, Bool, Vector, 5.24.0
Create a thin (shelled) extrusion from a profile, distance, thickness, and direction.Inputs
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Profile | Profile | The profile to extrude. |
| Distance | Scalar | Extent of the extrusion. if symmetric is enabled, the profile will be extruded by half the distance in both directions. |
| Draft angle | Scalar | Draft angle applied to the extrusion. |
| Symmetric | Bool | If checked, extrude the profile by half of distance along the positive and negative directions. |
| Thickness | Scalar Field | Thickness of the shelled extrusion. |
| Shell direction | Shell Enum | Direction to shell the extrusion. |
| Trim ends | Bool | If the profile is open and this option is checked, only extrude along the profile’s finite-length curves. |
| Direction | Vector | Direction of extrusion. uses the normal of the profile’s plane by default. |
