bug with thicken and close obects

[cekuhnen]

if I select all blue pipes and thicken them at once two pipes seem to be one object not.

If I select the one pipe alone and add the thickness it is all fine.

Claas,

This is as designed. The reason is the Thicken command itself. This command does not "consume" the input surfaces. So when you thicken to create a new body, you are making a new body on the active component, and leaving the old one where it was.

• In the dialog, it shows you are thickening to create a "new body". Because two or more of the resulting bodies overlap, they are joined into one new body if possible.
• Because you are working with the root component active, the new body is put into the bodies folder at the root.

The alternate you want is to do the thicken operations one at a time. In each case you are allowed to pick join, new body, etc.

Thanks,
