Extruded view of planar parts

It would be nice to have the possiblity of automatically extruding the planar elements to their thickness that have been set.

 

This would produce nice imagery for reports.

Hi Scudelari,

This option already exists, you need to go into Option > Results > 3-D Element Visualization  and enable "Visualize 2-D elements in 3-D".

I tried that option. It shows in 3D only the beam and frame elements.

I mean extruding the PLATE (surfaces).

 

Thank you.
