Figure 4.

Next Select Extrusion Properties on the side panel. You will get the pop up
shown in Figure 7.

Note that there are several aspects to this Popup. Change the Extrusion end
from 1’-0” to be 3” (to make it a recess in the wall.)
Leave Every thing else alone (for now) - Select OK to close the Popup.
Select Finish Sketch from the side menu, and the magenta box on the elevation
turns orange. (Figure 8.)

Now the neat little trick to actually create the void in the wall. Select
