[Feature request] Pad and Pocket with taper option

Post by rahmanshaber »

There is a taper option in extrude tool in "Part workbench".

I think this taper option in pad and pocket tool in "part design" workbench will be useful. Without this option one have to create 2 sketch + pad + pocket to create a taper feature.

There is no Extrude tool in Part Design workbench. The Extrude tool is in Part workbench.

You are most likely referring to the Pad tool (as you indeed do in the subject).

I point this out, not to be pedantic, but, because there is a difference between the Extrude and Pad tools. Yes, it is subtle, but, it is distinct. Pad has rules that Extrude does not.

Also, there is another thread where the developer has already committed to looking at this...
