The entire edge around
the face will become selected (Figure 9.22).
12. With the entire edge loop selected, switch to
the Multiply tab, and then click the Extender
Plus button (Figure 9.23).
When you click the Extender Plus button,
nothing obvious happens. That??™s normal; don??™t
click the button again in exasperation. The
Extender Plus tool will generate a new edge
from the selection. But it won??™t move it or give
you any sort of indication that it has done so.
13. Set the Action Center to Selection in the Modes
drop-down at the bottom of the interface.
14. Press Shift+h to activate the Size tool, and then
click and drag in the Perspective viewport to
scale down the selection. You??™ll see a duplicate
of the iPod-face object, with its surface facing
inward (Figure 9.24).
