Problem: No "Offset with Draft" option

I am using Pro Engineer Wildfire 4.0 education version. I was following this tutorial (http://www.me.cmu.edu/academics/courses/NSF_Edu_Proj/Wildfire_short_course/tutorial10.htm ) and was at the creating features part when it ask me to use offset with draft. For some reason, there is no option to offset with draft. I've tried looking around and other methods, but can't seem to find anything. Does anyone have any suggestions or has encountered this problem before? Thank you.

Is offset with draft the same as extrude with draft? I would like to add draft to my extrude so I have only one feature instead of two features like doing an extrude then have to go back and add draft to the surfaces.

If i understand what you're asking correctly you can flip the direction of the offset so it becomes an extruded feature as opposed to a recessed feature. You need to have an existing surface or solid geometry. If you're wanting the feature as a first feature in your model a blend or VSS may be want you want to use.
