PressPull command

#1
Hello, I am currently using CMS Intellicad 12.0 PE+. Is there any command that would have the same functions as AutoCAD "Presspull" command?

Thankyou.

Thankyoubasketbros.
"Extrude" is the CMS IntelliCAD command that is comparable to "Presspull" in AutoCAD. By extending the chosen 2D objects in a certain direction or by deleting the selected area from an already-existing 3D solid or surface, you can build a 3D solid or surface using the "Extrude" command.

In CMS IntelliCAD 12.0 PE+, there isn't a direct equivalent to AutoCAD's "Presspull" command. However, you can achieve similar results using the Extrude or Subtract commands, depending on what you're trying to accomplish.

Use Extrude to extend or push surfaces based on a closed 2D shape.
Combine this with Boolean operations like Subtract to remove material and simulate a "press and pull" effect.
These commands together can replicateslope much of the functionality of "Presspull."

The PressPull feature in AutoCAD is really convenient, and I’ve seen many Intellicad users look for an equivalent. In CMS Intellicad, the closest alternative is typically using the EXTRUDE command with boundary selection, though it doesn’t always behave exactly like PressPull. Some users also combine EXTRUDE with REGION or BOUNDARY commands to achieve a similar workflow, depending on whether the geometry is fully enclosed. It would be great if future Intellicad updates included a more direct equivalent for smoother modeling.
