If it won’t work, save the SKP file and upload it here so we can figure out what you did. I am curious about why you are resizi…

Sounds like when you used the move tool you managed to slightly twist the face. Try drawing a rectangle and use push pull on it without otherwise modifying it Snap Dave.

Thanks for taking your time to help. None of it helped, BUT I shut down Sketchup, Rebooted, re-opened Sketchup, Re-created my rectangle and this time, it magically worked just like it was advertised to. I had done all this restarting before but it did not seem to help. Now I can continue learnin…
