Sketch analysis, open section, WF2

[sreymond]

Often I encounter the "section must be closed for this feature" error in sketcher even though the section appears closed (even when I zoom in). Only sometimes is the problem area highlighted in red. In the worst case, I have to redraw the section. Is there a way toperform a sketch analysis (like inCatia)to find out exactly where the open section is?


Thanks!

In WF4 there is. Too bad you are in 2. I typically use the extend/trim tool on all the corners just to verify that they do indeed match up when that happens, usually catches it.

turn in your dashboard to a surface so you can get out of the feature. Upon shading the surfaces you should be able to determine the problem after doing what Corey suggested above.
