In Archicad, only those perpendicular to the plane seem to be extrude...

You can use Morph, create the plane then in your pet palette use tube to follow the path.

This might help explain morph surface tubing a little more...

I'm talking about the extrude at the bottom of the plane.

(on the top left)

I can do an extrude path perpendicular to the plane.

The extrude path I'm talking about is not perpendicular to the face.
It will be easier to understand if you look at the answer above.
Is it possible?

Sorry, I don't understand what it is you want to extrude.

 

You can either create a morph surface and extrude (tube) that with the pet pallet option.

Or you can create a complex profile that you can use with the wall, beam or column tools.

 

Either way the profile you create will be a cross section at right angles (perpendicular) to the path you extrude.

thank you so much.
Archicad seems too difficult to learn. ^^
I couldn't find this method in a video tutorial.
Thank you again.

The Archicad YouTube channel has many videos.

Just try searching there for what you want ....

In amongst all of the morph videos, you will see one about 'tubing' with a morph.

You just need to be patient and for sure you will find it easy to learn and you have the Graphisoft Community to help you out. 😎
