Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Inner extrude or scale?! not possible

Hi there!

I made an object and I now want to have an inner extrude so I get the red line in this image.
In cinema 4d you got this tool named inner extrude but there is no such thing in maya.
I found this videos also that explains what I mean. Left is c4d and what im trying to get, on the right is maya
and how its behaving differently.

Uneven.

Go into the insert edge loop tools options and click equal distance from the edges. Click and drag along one of the edge of your extrusion.

Hello Stylow,
Select the face as you have done then Edit Mesh - Extrude, but only use the offset control of the extrude to get the result.
