I have a problem when I want to use a cutout.

My purpose is to get a perforated plate but Inventor doesn't show this.

Only the black color is shown and not the holes.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance

Make sure the "cut" is selected in the command dialog window.

I can't open your file because I am still on 2012.

if you're just using that .png file to similate perforated plate, the cut away won't work.

Hi Cadmanto

I'm not doing an extrude, but I am using the cutout option in the appearance menu.

See the screenshot in attachment.

What's wrong with the .png file?

I'm not sure what you did wrong, but after I cleard your overrides and set generic to use your image file it worked fine.

Sorry I misunderstood your issue.

2 thoughts, first maybe the transparency needs to be adjusted on the png file

and second, can you use this appearance in the color portion of the style and standard editor?

You forgot that there are no longer colors in 2013. He has to work with the appearance editor.

It has all changed in 2013.

Alrighty then...

I am still on 2012, so I guess I have something to look into.

Thanks for the heads up guys.
