polyExtrudeFacet(*args, **kwargs)

Extrude faces. Faces can be extruded separately or together, and manipulations can be performed either in world or object space.

Flags:

Long name (short name)		Argument Types	Properties
attraction (att)		float
	This flag specifies the attraction, related to magnet.C: Default is 0.0. The range is [-2.0, 2.0].Q: When queried, this flag returns a float.
caching (cch)		bool
	Toggle caching for all attributes so that no recomputation is needed
constructionHistory (ch)		bool
	Turn the construction history on or off (where applicable). If construction history is on then the corresponding node will be inserted into the history chain for the mesh. If construction history is off then the operation will be performed directly on the object.Note:If the object already has construction history then this flag is ignored and the node will always be inserted into the history chain.
createCurve (cc)		bool
divisions (d)		int
	This flag specifies the number of subdivisions.C: Default is 1Q: When queried, this flag returns an int.
gain (ga)		float
gravity (g)		float, float, float
