David Bethel Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 I know I am very lacking when it comes to 3DSOLIDs. Can either a region or body be converted into 3D lines ? I'm seeing some old VB stuff but it doesn't look too good Thanks! -David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Explode a 3D solid and the result would be regions. Explode the regions and you get lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Bethel Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 See how little I know I've found a work around. Save everything back to Release 13 ( it recognizes 3DSOLIDs ) Saveas R12 ( it doesn't ) 3DSolids are converted to line work ( so far ) It's a cludge, but what the heck -David -David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Bethel Posted December 22, 2017 Author Share Posted December 22, 2017 (edited) I've tried a couple test s with xedges. I guess it will take me some time. Results we so so in 2012.
