Press pull not working on multiple faces

[WSEast]

I have three faces from three different bodies which I want to select at once and then use the push pull command to move them all back 20mm. I did the same thing on one end but when I tried it on the faces of the opposite side, it will not select all three faces, only one. I have also noticed that even if I try moving one face at a time, it does not work.

The image below shows the three red faces which were moved with the push pull command successfully. The faces on the opposite end, however, were not successful.

When I created the red faces they were sketched on that side using to to face command to terminate the extrude on the other end. Could this possibly be the complication and if so how can I get around it?

Any ideas?

Thanks

Could you share the design with us? I'd like to investigate this question with the model in hand. See below video for more detail.

 Let me know if you have any questions.

Hello,

Looking at the model you have attached it looks like what is happening is that when you use the press/pull command on the back side, it is registering that you used the command previously on this face and it is trying to give you the option to edit it.  If you intent is to edit the 3 faces you pulled you can do this from the Timeline.  Looking at the post I am not sure if this is your goal though.  If you want to invoke an extrude doing this via the extrude command is probably the best way to do it.  This should give you better results that are more like what you are expecting.

I will work with the team internally to better understand why we aren't editing all 3 of the faces and we aren't allowing you to choose additional faces.

Cheers,

Just as an update after you select the first face you should see in the dialog box an option that is called Offset Type, if you switch this to New Offset you should be able to select all 3 of the faces.  Still working to understand why the Automatic isn't allowing you to choose the additional faces.

Cheers,

Thanks Joel,

That did the trick!
