Select the 1D element, element side or seeded line (edge) to be extruded and set the projection target (target surface) and direction. The element size can be directly entered or defined by the number of divisions on the distance to the projection. The original element used in extrude can be deleted/moved/copied. For move, the used element is moved to the end of the extruded element.

Project Target
Select an existing surface of a geometry shape or an element boundary surface as the projection target (target surface). Or, select 3 arbitrary points that pass the target surface using the [Tree Points Plane] function.
Projection Direction
Set the projection direction using the axis direction on the GCS or the direction of an arbitrary vector that connects the start and end points. Use the [Shortest Path Line] to automatically set the shortest distance direction between the node and projection target (target surface) in the normal direction.

Generate a 2D element by project extruding a 1D element, element side (element boundary line) or edge onto the target surface. Here, the used edge needs to be seeded, or connected to a mesh.
