How to push face back without deleting features?

[bradleychambersche]

Hey everyone, I'm having trouble finding a thread where someone is trying to shorten a complex 3D object without losing features. When I try to push back a face 10mm it is not scaling the whole object. I tried using the scale feature but it didn't give me the option to just remove 10mm on one side of the object.

How would you guys go about doing it?

attached is what I mean. Still a noobie when it comes to fusion 360! Thanks for any help.

Hi @bradleychambersche,

I think you are looking for the Move/Copy feature.

Hier, you can move the faces you like.

Try switching from automatic offset to new offset.

Hi @wmhazzard,

I don't think this is the solution @bradleychambersche is looking for.

Within his picture, you see that the Holes are in the original position and they have to move with.

By using the Move/Copy command he can move also the holes in place.

This is not possible with the New Offset setting.

By using the move feature after highlighting everything it is indeed what I was looking for, Thanks so much!
