Failed to extrude sections, check input.
Im making a keychain for a friend, and when I try and extrude the highlighted piece it tells me to check input, how do i get this to extrude? -
Re: Failed to extrude sections, check input.
I believe you must move the starts connecting with the highlighted piece. They're what stop the extrude from happening. -
Re: Failed to extrude sections, check input.
This is a fundamental issue with the Parasolid Kernel that Onshape, Solidworks, NX, and countless other systems use. You basically can't have two bodies join at a line. There needs to be some small amount of overlap. -
Re: Failed to extrude sections, check input.
I came across a similar problem. It was complex geometry that was triggered by a variable change. Suddenly my parts became a sea of red "Boolean Operation failed to return a valid part" for no obvious reason. A bunch of time was spent pulling the design apart to deconstruct what was going on, googling lots, a bit of… -
Re: Failed to extrude sections, check input.
It will be the stars at the top that touch the edge of the logo - they are creating non-manifold edges (you don't want to know, other than this condition is not allowed). Move them slightly in the sketch so that they either keep or remove a small amount of geometry and it should be OK. -
Re: Failed to extrude sections, check input.
Thanks for this 👍 I do wonder if the CAD system is able to be more helpful though? Does the parasolid kernel return error details that can be of more help to the user? The example I posted above is a fairly simple and a more obvious one. But when the design is more complex, and the issue arises from a variable change, it… -
Re: Failed to extrude sections, check input.
hard to tell from a screen shot, for better help it is always best to link your document. But I would assume the two stars on the top of the C's curve are exactly touching the edge of the curve. This may be creating a zero-thickness edge. Try sliding the stars down slightly using transform and see if that works. (or make…
