Why I can't make a face with four vertices?

Warning: this is a super noob question:
I often have a problem when I try to model something.
You need an introduction: I usually start to model by adding a plane. Then I extrude every vertices to create the mesh I want.
After this, i select one by one 4 vertices and I press F to create a face.
I don’t understand why - very often - when I press F, the face is not created.
thank you in advance. I just want to learn.!

Hi,

For that:

  • Edit Mode > Select Face (not vertices)
  • Extrude face . . . . et voilà :wink:

Else, your method work but you must select ALL vertices (Shift Key) and then press the F key.
