Short description of error

  1. When nothing is selected:
    (a) In "Mesh > Extrude" menu, Vertex, Edge, and Face options are absent. They should be present, but grey out.
    (b) In Vertex, Edge, and Face menus, Extrude options are active. They should be greyed out.
  2. When a vertex is selected:
    (a) In "Mesh > Extrude" menu, Edge, and Face options are absent. They should be present, but grey out.
    (b) In Edge and Face menus, Extrude options are active. They should be greyed out.
  3. When an edge is selected:
    (a) In "Mesh > Extrude" menu, Face options are absent. They should be present, but grey out.
    (b) In Face menu, Extrude options are active. They should be greyed out.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Select nothing, a vertex, and then an edge.
Check the relevant menus for the stated issues.

Are you asking me? I'm sorry, but I don't know. I've never worked on the code. I've only just started using the software and noticed this problem when I went to extrude something. I figure you would need to check the code for the module that generates those menus.

Oops, I'm wrong. There's still a problem here. The menus are wrong, but not quite in the way I said.

The one correction I can make to my report is about #3, when an edge is selected. It turns out that we can extrude a face with just an edge selected. Just moving the edge extrudes it out into a new face. Therefore, in the above bug report:
3(b) is wrong. In particular, when an edge is selected, "Face > Extrude Faces" should not be greyed out. It works.
And therefore:
3(a) is half right. In particular, when an edge is selected, there should be a menu item: "Mesh > Extrude > Extrude Faces" (there currently is not) and it should not be greyed out.

You're going to need to work with people more experienced in different kinds of extruding in Blender to figure out the rest of the details. But the one thing I can say for sure from experience today is that the menu item "Mesh > Extrude > Extrude Faces" is missing when an edge is selected and it should be there.

Also I wanted to ask that generally all the good first issues have multiple PRs associated with them, so could I still make contribution to them or it would be helpful if you could provide me any issue that you think is unsolved.
Thank you

Hi @Prikshit-singh , you could ask in https://blender.chat/channel/user-interface-module if that is real bug and should be fixed. Everything depend only on this and the fact what is the expected behavior.

Hi @mod_moder , I asked the issue in the user-interface-module and got this in response: https://blender.chat/channel/user-interface-module/thread/6HRrmrjd8pZ7uZufB
