when i create a sketch with open contour for a cut extrude-thin, the following happens:
1) create sketch with an open contour (ie: a single line)
2) try to cut-extrude, SW asks if i want to close the sketch, i click no
3) then instead of detecting extrude-thin, it defaults to "through all" in direction 1 and 2.
4) every single time i have to check "thin feature" then un-check direction 2, then change direction 1 from "through all" to "blind"
does anyone know why this happens? am I missing something, why would cut extrude-thin default to that?
another note, boss extrude thin works properly, auto detecting a thin feature when an open contour is extruded and defaulting to blind instead of through all.
