trim/clip-extrude

Recommended Posts

When I clip a surface in VWorks, then extrude it, I end up with extra lines through the center of where I clipped it, which will only disappear when rendered 'shaded no lines'. Any idea how to avoid this? (assume making a tube- two concentric circles, clip surface, extrude, suddenly there is a tube that looks like it is made of two "C's" stuck together).

There is no way around this problem when using the clip surface command. You can take the two pieces that you are clipping and extrude them to the desired values. Then use the Subtract Solid command to take out the section you want. This will eliminate the line down the center.
