Extrude in a different vector and distance from surface

[Anonymous]

When extruding a sketch it's only possible to extrude to the vector that is normal to the sketch's plane.

Sometimes one needs to extrude to a different vector or parallel to a plane.

Also missing is extrude to certain distance from surface (before or after the surface), currently only up to a surface is possible.

yeah I requested that in a different idea as well. pretty common sense to have for surfaces an extrude along a selectable vector with a never changing distance.

Thank you for your idea - this is getting moved to future consideration.  It is now in our backlog and when work starts it will be changed to accepted.

Thank you,
