GAMO Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 Hi! Wen you make a perpendicular hole (any shape) to an extrude, a line always appears from the hole to the borders of the extrude...Is there a way of avoid this line to appear?? Thank You! Quote Link to comment
Guest Posted April 15, 2002 Share Posted April 15, 2002 This is a limitation of the 3d portion of the object you are extruding. Becuase the object is clipped in 2d and then extruded, that strange horizontal line shows up. This is a limitation of that portion of the application at this point in time. Quote Link to comment
GAMO Posted April 18, 2002 Author Share Posted April 18, 2002 Katie: After many tryouts I've found that if you make an extrude based on the xy plane, and cut the holes from another extrudes make in the zx or xy plane the lines disappears. I mean the extrusions axis have to be perpendicular to each other. I'll hope this issue will be solved in future releases of VW. Thank You Quote Link to comment
Guest Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 Gamo, Are you refering to subtracting solids? There is a difference between object properties when an object is clipped in 2d and when objects become solid subtraction objects in 3d. In 3d, subtraction solids take on a whole new type of object rather than the object that is created when you clip it in 2d. Like I stated before, this is a limitation of the programming used to design that portion of the software. The engineers are working on a way around it so the objects arenb't seperated or the line does not appear. Quote Link to comment
