A taper slopes the sides of any profile, sketch text included: lines, arcs and spline or conic
curves move in or out together, and a flat tip shorter than the taper closes to a point. A
taper steeper than the profile's details (a stroke, a curve or a gap narrower than it) is
refused with that reason; a smaller taper or distance builds.
curves move in or out together, and a flat tip shorter than the taper closes to a point. On
spline and conic sides the slope is approximate: the moved outline is a curve of the same kind
within 2 % of the taper's offset (or 10 µm) of the true one, a curve that turns too much for
that being cut into pieces first; where a curve bends tighter than the offset, the offset folds
and is smoothed over. A taper steeper than the profile's details (a stroke, a curve or a gap
narrower than it) is refused with that reason; a smaller taper or distance builds.
**Thin Extrude** (`thin: true` on `solid.extrude`, the Thin Extrude box in its dialog) builds a
