I am trying to do something very straight forward, but it seems to be failing!
I have created a table cloth draped over a table, all i am trying to do is remove the excess square that appears when creating the drape. I follow the Vectorworks video on YouTube, which is brief, says, create drape, draw a rectangle over the excess, extrude to "X" amount, subtract surfaces, Done!
However when i do it it says
"You have tried to create a solid object which cannot be computed. Edit the geometry to resolve this condition and try again"
frustratingly, if i lower the U and V direction i can make it work, but then the resolution of the object is lost and it looks rubbish! leaving it at 50/50 is a nice compromise, but the object will not clip!
has anyone got any ideas?
To detail the object it's a 6' diameter cylinder at 800mm high
