Hello I am tried to draw 2D geometry in xy-plane I open designModeler and draw a rectangle in xy-plane and give its dimension as 1m*1m after I press extrude then generate the geometry become as 3D? what the problem may somebody guide me?

That is exactly what the extrude feature is supposed to do.
Check out "Concept > Surfaces from Sketches"
