Interface

For details on using the caddy controls, see The Caddy Interface.

[Bevel Type]

From the drop-down list, choose the method for beveling multiple polygons at once:

GroupBeveling takes place along the average normal of each contiguous group of polygons. If you bevel multiples of such groups, each group moves along its own averaged normal.
Local NormalBeveling takes place along each selected polygon's normal.
By PolygonBevels each polygon individually.

Height

Specifies the extent of the extrusion in scene units. You can extrude selected polygons outward or inward, depending on whether the value is positive or negative.

Outline Amount

Makes the outer border of selected polygons bigger or smaller, depending on whether the value is positive or negative.
