David Thomas Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 (edited) right click on a face and select - Create - Thicken Shape in the status bar is states "Create a Thicken Feature/Part from the selected faces (s)." Now I read that as including the ability to create a new feature under the part OR create a new part. I don't want to create a new part, I want to add a "thickness intellishape" to the exisiting surface I'm working with (having extended the edges) and keep the maximum history. Is this possible or more likely have I missed something? (i.e creating a new thick part wipes out any history built up on the surface) Or is this to do with all this structured / inovative part business, but I can't create a structured part because I'm in inovate...

Cary OConnor Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 The thicken as a feature is for structured parts (on surfaces not solids). To do it in innovative you have to create the thicken part then boolean it to the main part. Cary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
