How to extrude along a path

Hi, all!

 

In the attached scene, I want to extrude pCube1 along polyToCurve1. I select the curve first, and then the cube. Then "Edit Mesh | Extrude" and... nothing happens ! What am I missing ?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

P.S : I use Maya 2017.

Hi!

 

Only Components like faces and edges can be extruded along a curve path, so first select a face or an edge, then the curve and then use extrude.

How can you select a face and a curve if you need to be in select faces mode for selecting a face and you must switch to object mode in order to select your curve?.

Here's a step that it's not explained and this is why it doesn't work for me or I'm a real newbye in this.

Please, could you help me?.
