Extrusion problem in version 0.17

Post by agrgal »

Hi everybody,

I'm a newbie in Freecad and, please, excuse my poor English as well :D . I came across a problem using extrusion and didn't find any solution to sort it out. Following this training tutorial (https://youtu.be/CjKaygrjNaM in Spanish) but using 0.17 version instead, A face cannot be extruded heading a normal direction; even when this option is selected, the face is extruded by Z-axis. I attach an example file and a before-after screenshots.

Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong? Thanks for your answers in advance.

When I downgrade the wire in draft I get a face which I can extrude along the normal.
