Creating solid objects (open or closed)
Activate one object (open or closed) or deactivate all objects.
For Solid / Add features (Add Extrude, Add Revolve, and Add Drive), the new feature will be connected to the active object.
For Solid / Remove features (Remove Extrude, Remove Revolve, and Remove Drive), material will only be removed from the active object.
Add Features
Deactivated objects are blue, active objects are orange. The Add Extrude function is to be used to create a new triangular object.
The triangular object is orange, and is "connected" to the cylindrical object. In fact, both features are considered to be one object.
Remove Features
Deactivated objects are blue, active objects are orange. The Remove Extrude function is to be used to remove material by extruding the rectangular sketch.
Material was removed only from the active object.
