Derive parallel solid?

I've just recently moved up to FormZ Pro v.8, from all the way back at version 6.6.2. Back in v.6, There was a Derive tool called "parallel" that would in effect create a hollow box from a cube primitive with one click, based on setting the wall and slab offsets in the tool options. I can't seem to find this tool in v.8, and understand that the tool sets have changed quite a bit to introduce lots of new features.

 

The question that I have is if this tool still exists, where is it? If the tool has been removed, what might be the best way to create a hollow box with specific wall thicknesses like you used to be able to do?

Hi Abkiser,

 

The Thicken Tool is located on the Derive 2 tool row (or you can just press the Space bar and the letter T to select it from the list).

 

Does that do what you want?
