AutoCAD 2010 :: 3D Shell Command - Face Loops Not Repairable
Jul 19, 2013When trying to use the 3D shell command, I receive "Face loops not repairable" error. Why I get this error?

I have a funnel with a curved top. I'm trying to project an inset of the border onto the curved surface and use the shell command to create a hollow funnel with an overhanging lip. I have projected the inset successfully, but cannot select the resulting smaller face, just the whole original face.
A similar problem that I tried while attempting to figure this out was shelling a sphere. 2d sketch -> 3d sketch project onto surface, and try applying shell to the resulting "face". However I can only select the whole face when trying to shell.
I have a blade housing that requires a continuos radius around the profile. It is not a full radius. When I shell the blade, it looks like the raidius wants to continue. I was told I had to use two fillets and the particial radius will not work. However, the continuous radious in the customers requirement. Is there a way to shell this part correctly?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI was working on some modifications to a previous drawing and needed to change the face color on multiple faces, about 40 of them... After using the command on a couple of them, I decided that an improvement is required or I'm not understanding how to pick multiple items with the same stroke of the command. What I'm asking is, is there a way to pick multiple faces to change multiple face color in just a few strokes or can a custom lisp file be created to speed this process up?

I don't understand at all what they are, i tried with 2 edges at an angle but no.

This happen outside the potential malware infection?
if you care to not click-through, the problem is that certain commands (not all of them) simply do not disply in the command line. so the MOVE command for example looks like this:
NORMAL:
Command: _move
Select objects:
NOW:
Command:
Select objects:
same with QSAVE and who knows how many others.
I am trying to import a Polyface Mesh of a road plan to use in Terramodel. Terramodel handles .dwf and .dxf perfectly, but I seem to be having trouble preserving the elevations when importing. The polyface mesh imports in as polylines and without preserving the given elevations. I have used autocad in the past and have access to Autocad Civil 3d 2012 if need be.
Is there an import tool or command I am missing or unaware of that will allow the import to take place successfully?
I am creating a 3D model and have my selected view within a viewport on layout space.
My prefered visual style for the model is with no face style (i.e only isolines visible) with full shadows on. This looks perfect on layout space.
When plotting to pdf - it looks nothing like as shown despite setting the viewport shade style to as displayed or the selected visual style and the shadows don;t show.
As the pdf option is not providing the desired output. Is there something I am doing wrong or is there a way to render the model whilst showing no face style/material?
I want to union all the members in a complex roof truss structure so I can 3D print the model (picture attached). It seems intermittent in which elements will union and which wont. Revisiting the elements they sometimes then union. Sometimes there is no error message while sometimes 'Inconsistent Edge Face Relationship'

I added a drawing file which has a coloured face solid,I put a circle on blue face and making a hole on this face,and I want to delete red face without exploding solid,after all this I want to mesh this solid with maximum 25 units.
There is any option to merge bottom face of pad eye and pipe curved face... Something like
1. Extrude face to a surface or
2. like notch option available in frame generator ?
N:B - pad eye is made by extrusion and pipe made by frame generator.
All I need to do is merge a circular face to a flat face, so both faces become one continuous face. Is this possible at all?
I have a attached a screenshot to show what I mean. Face 1 needs to be merged with face 2. This is so if I constrain anything to that face it will constrain to the entire face and not either the circular face OR the flat face.
Today's Question is as mentioned above, How to remove the loops from a surface?
I have a surface created from the points. Eventually it has got many ups & downs in the elevations, so I did delete some of the points from the surface. And due to this, some loops are developed inside the surface itself with the closed boundaries.
I also tried to draw surface lines in those loops, either they get shorten or gets enlarged but does not completely vanishes...

I am trying to import a complex curve from autocad lt (in my case an airfoil), to create parts. I have drawn the curve in autocad lt as a polyline. Autocad lt treats the curve as a single object, and seems to understand it as a closed loop.
When I import the curve into Inventor lt, Inventor treats the curve as a series of unconnected line segments. What can I do in either Autocad lt or Inventor lt to get Inventor to treat the curve as a single object, so that I can then extrude it?
I am making some fairly free form sketches using lots of 3-point arcs that ultimately need to be closed loops so that I can extrude them. Although I have always been letting one arc snap to another at the end of the process I seem to have trouble closing the loop. It does not seem very apparent how to find the points that are not properly closed and I wind up struggling with the Close Loop function. Is there an easy way to tell where the problems are in a profile? I have tried showing all constraints, but that doesn't necessarily give me the clues I need.
View 5 Replies View RelatedIn regards to sweeping, what does the title of the post mean (self intersecting paths or loops are invalid for this operation). I have a 3D sketch consisting of 1 straight line, one spline with 4 points dictated by 'points' and an arc. All have tangential constrains to each other and I am looking to sweep a circle along this path to create a bent wire. I don't have anypictures or files as it is a stand alone computer at the moment.
View 2 Replies View Relatedis there a way to use vb to add closed sketch loops to an existing feature?
I am trying to create a parametric template for a fan guard assembly, complete with drawings.
I am using an arrangement of circles defined using some linear sketch patterns as the cross-section of a revolved feature. Using ilogic/vb, I want to automate the number and spacing of items in the linear pattern, and then update the loops selected for the revolved feature.
I have found code on this forum (courtesy of Curtis Waguespack) that I can use to select all closed loops and create a feature. I can apply this code to create a NEW revolved feature, but I haven't been able to figure out how to use it to UPDATE an existing feature.
I need the feature to UPDATE rather than create new to maintain links in my assemblies and drawings.
Is there a way to use PRESSPULL on a face that's behind or underneath another face. When I use PRESSPULL it always selects the face on top and sometimes I want a face that is behind or underneath that face.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIt happens often that a sketch has redundand points or open loops.
I don't want to run the sketch doctor to clean it up every sketch I create.
In the attached avi you can see the few steps that I use to create a sketch. I don't understand why at the end it has problems.

AutoCAD was working fine on my machine for several months, and now I'm getting this error.
Exception in acmgd.dll ARX Command
Tried repair, resinstall, then uninstalled and installed again, and this keeps coming up.
I seem to have lost my command bar on my AutoCAD 2012 drawings. I looked into Options and can not seem to find the command to turn it back on.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just got AUTOCAD 2013 and I have problem using MOVE command. With my previous version AUTOCAD I was able to move one by one every line from the object I created. Now with the new version when I use MOVE command, not only one line is moved, it is moved the whole object (Like the object is a block, but is not).
How can I move only one single object from my drawing?
After I choose named UCS, the view rotates accordingly. Sometimes having named UCS as orthogonal works but I still prefer having world axis as orthogonal in my monitor. How to change default?
