Settings

  • Distance: Sets the thickening distance.
  • Offset only: Moves the mesh a specified distance from the existing geometry.
  • Solid: Fills the edges between the original and new mesh to create a closed mesh.
  • Both sides: Draws the object on both sides of the object, creating the thickness twice as thick as you indicate.
