AutoCAD 2010 :: Solid Will Not Subtract?

Mar 27, 2013

I have a solid of a vortex breaker for a nozzle in a cone, from which I subtracted the cone.  But when I attempt to subtract the nozzle as well, it will not subtract.  I have verified that both entities are solids. I copied them into a new drawing by themselves.  I even rebooted my computer--all to no avail. I have attatched a drawing of the two solids.

AutoCad 3D :: Take 3D Solid And Subtract From It While Keeping It Parametric

Apr 29, 2012

I am trying to build a 3d model of a flight case and when I subtract the handles from the center of the panel it looses its parametric capabilities. I am able to get around the latches by using the trim tool and than extruding to 3d. Is there anything I can do to allow handles?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Do Solid / Subtract With Array Items

Sep 27, 2011

If you have a housing with say, 12 cylinders in the flange which are to be cut out of the housing to become the 12 bolt-holes.  If you positioned your cylinders using polar array, are you supposed to be able to use the command solid/substract?  I can't as it won't pick the array parts to cut.  I had to resort to rotating/copy all the cylinders around the flange and then it works great. Any way to do holes through a solid...

AutoCad 3D :: How To Extrude And Subtract Through Two Objects

Nov 2, 2012

I have two boxes stacked on top of each other. On the top I have a rectangle which I want to extrude down through the first box and partially through the second box and then subtract the extruded rectangle from the two stacked boxes. Extrude works fine, but when I use subtract it only removes the area from the first box. The bottom box remains solid despite having "extruded" the rectangle down through the bottom box as well.

I've tried joining the two boxes into a single object before using extrude and subtract, but for some reason the join command won't work in this case.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Select Non-solid Entities On Solid Layer

Mar 19, 2012

We have this need to have all of the solids in a drawing to be placed in the "solid" layer.

Sometimes folks are drafting lines to develop these solids, and keeping the lines on the "solid" layer, rather than moving them to another layer, or deleting them altogether.

I could get folks to run this command before leaving the drawing.

I'm thinking something along the lines of:

Select all entities that are on the solids layer that are not solids.

If nil, great, do nothing.

If entities are selected, let me do something with them.

I'm hoping the following can be modified ever so slightly.

 (setq non_solid (ssget "X" (list (cons 0 "3DSOLID")(cons 8 "solid"))))

AutoCAD Inventor :: Split A Single Solid Body Into 2 Solid Bodies?

Sep 19, 2012

I'm trying to split a single solid body into 2 solid bodies. The problem is that the body I'm trying to split consists of two separate pieces. I can split a body when it is a single piece no problem, but I'm having the problem when the two pieces are not joined at all.

When I try and split it on the origin plane it gives this error:

"Creating parting line failed. Could not build this Split"

When I try and split it on a work plane lying on one of the pieces it gives this error:

"Creating parting line failed. Modeling failure in ASM. Redefine inputs."

Or, another variation on this erorr:

"Creating parting line failed. Split feature could not create two bodies. Change the Split Tool so that split feature can create two bodies."

AutoCAD 2013 :: Converting Complex Solid Surface To Solid Model

Aug 12, 2013

I have finally created the shell of the complex surface that you see. This is only a section of the part because I cannot show the whole thing for proprietary reasons. I formed solid surfaces using the network command. The propblem is that it will not convert to a solid because the surface seams are not "water tight." When the network command created the solid surfaces, the surface seams do not exactly match the lines so there are gaps in all the seams. I have tried blending, patching, etc. and nothing works. how to convert this to a solid without losing the outlines and the shape?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Remove Line Inside Solid Object / Transparent Solid Objects?

Sep 16, 2013

How can I remove the lines in the middle after I press and pull the objects.

Attached is the Untitle.jpg, to make more clearer to you. Blue is the wall and skyblue is the aquarium. I want the back and the front of the aquarium don't have any line in the middle but even I do shade command the fill of the color is still there. Cause if I explode and delete the line in the middle the colors that fill the aquarium are getting rid off See Untitled 2.Jpg to see what I mean. And also how can make the aquarium Untitle 3.jpg transparent?

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Subtract Bodies (parts)

Jul 14, 2012

I am now modeling elements for silicone formwork for casting elements of epoxy resien.

I would like to schow idea of this formwork. For this I would like to make part representing silicone part of this formwork. It is contained in aluminium "cover" for convenience of use.

In assembly I have placed may model, and aluminium elements representing "cover" of formwork.

I am trying now to model silicon but it is quite hard. I can not use "derivered part" method to substract model and cover elements from some big block body because coordinate systems do not mach in all elements.

In Part there is "combine" function but it only works with bodies mabe within this part.

Is it possible to substract one placed in assembly from anothe part in this assemby?

AutoCad 3D :: Multiple Options Via SUBTRACT Command?

Nov 9, 2011

I would like to be able to extrude an object then do a subtract or something similer, then somehow put the subtract on a layer so if i hide said layer the extrueded object will be showen as if it never had the subtract applyed. But if the layer is show agean then the extrued will have a hole in it agean.

P.s. for an example of one thing this could be used for, modeling wrenches with difrent shaped grips but the same handle. Without just making multiple copys of the handle.
