face extrude in maya

[vvmanoj]

Hi,<br>
&nbsp;I am new to Maya. I basically boxed modelled the outline of a
shape and chose face extrude. But I get some weird geometry. They are
like hollow boxes. I want a smooth "box" type extrude. All you Maya
guys here...please help.<br>
Thanks,<br>

Hi,<br>
&nbsp;I tired that....it was turned on. Infact I tried some of the
other settings under tool options too but to no avail. I am sending you
the file...really nice of you. Thanks again!<br>
