Surface offset disabled InventorLT 2015

[wim]

I created a simple surface in Inventor LT 2015 but cannot offset the surface.

The command remains disabled (grayed out).

Is this because I use the LT version?

Could you upload your dataset so I could have a try? Thanks!

Is there a check box on the offset command in LT called 'auto blend' or something like that (I'm not in front of Inventor right now).

It's near the bottom of the dialogue. Try unchecking it...

Sorry for late answer.

The thicken/offset command was hidden (for me :-)) behind the combine command, while I was used to find it in the surface menu.

So I added the thicken/offset command to my user commands menu tab and there it remained disable.

Meanwhile I found the right place and all is working fine.

I cannot even reproduce the same thing right now

Thanks for quick reply,

Wim
