changing thickness of prior extrude (by jbh)
I'm having trouble figuring out how to change a thickness for an extrusion from an earlier sketch.
In the attached file/example, I create a sketch, extrude it, assign the extrusion a dimension of 20. Then I create a sketch in new workplane (which is on the surface of the first extrusion) to create a pocket (of depth 17).
If want to go back and adjust the thickness of the original extrusion (the 20 dimension, in red in picture), how do I achieve this? It seems like its locked after I started the second sketch. I can drill down and find the constraint where the dimension is assigned, but I cannot seem to change it.

Select the extrude group using the active button in the properties browser, and you can then edit its depth.
