Description

Creates a MultiPatch or Polyline from a base geometry by extruding the base geometry along an axis defined by the input Vector3D.  The base Z values of the geometry are the same as the base geometry and top Z values are offset from the base by the Z component of the input Vector3D.  The top geometry is also shifted in the X and Y directions by an offset defined by the X component and Y component of the Vector3D.  The resulting extrusion is parallel to the XY-plane only if the base geometry is parallel to the XY-plane.  The input geometry should be ZAware and ZSimple.

Remarks

All non-linear segments are treated as linear segments when extrusion is performed.  Only Polylines, Polygons, Envelopes, Points, and Multipoints are allowed as input geometries.  Polylines, Polygons, and Envelopes will output MultiPatches while Points and Multipoints will output Polylines.
