JD Mather Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Autodesk Inventor will trim surface (not sure about AutoCAD 2011). Since you hve neither. Thicken the Loft surface by a nomimal amount. Now that it is a solid you can Slice with surface using the Swept surface. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamer Posted July 10, 2010 Author Share Posted July 10, 2010 The Loft surface (blue) now becomes a 3D Solid. I used Slice and Subract both have no effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD Mather Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Do you know how to use the Slice with Surface command? Time to quit fooling around. We spend all of this time learning to communicate with geometry, let's communicate with geometry - attach your file here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamer Posted July 10, 2010 Author Share Posted July 10, 2010 Sorry JD Mather. Did it. After Slice the Solid with the Swept Surface, it looks like nothing had happened. True is the Solid has been made into 2 layers, removed the first layer, the bottom layer has been trimmed and it changed back to a Surface. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD Mather Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 When you did the Slice if you watched the Command Line you had 2 options pick the side to keep/discard or keep both sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
