How do I load a .skp file with an extension and make the extension draw geometry as a face?

I’m making an extension where I want the user to select a 2D .skp file from a drop down menu and the program will take that file and extrude it. How do I do this?

I think I explained this in one of your other topic threads.
The profile will be treated as a component, loaded into the DefinitionList. You’ll create a group and add an instance of the loaded profile component to it. Then explode the component instance. Next you’ll transform the group to the starting point of the extrusion path using a transformation. You do the followme along the path. The result is that the extruded trim is encapsulated within it’s own group.
Lastly you’ll remove the profile component definition.
