Summary


Details

A Convergent Body is created when the edge(s) of a B-Surface are Extruded. 
The expectation is that a standard Analytic body is created.



Solution

This behavior is controlled by the Modeling Preference '•Treat Degree 1 Spline 
as Polyline' (under 'File -> Preferences - > Modeling -> Convergent').


When this option is checked, 3D geometry created with single-segment splines 
is created as convergent geometry. When it is unchecked standard analytic 
geometry is created.
