Can you extrude to non-planar surfaces in Inventor? I'm new to the software (typically a Solidworks user) and am running into brick walls when I try to extrude solids or surfaces to non-planar complex surfaces.
 
Draw the profile you want to extrude. Finish sketch. Hit extrude. select the profile, select To Next, select the target body. Hit OK.

Well, my telepathy circuit obviously needs recalibrating.

Which is the target surface? Have you done the tutorials?
