Draft error on extruded text

bhell385 — Sat, 21 Jun 2025 03:17:06 GMT

Hello all, I am looking for someone to teach me how to extend a draft feature to the rest of my text/logo, whether that be a workaround, fixing the original DXF, or something else. The draft is successful on most of it, but there are areas where it says "the operation could not create a valid result." The draft is set to 33.7 degrees so I can have about a 3mm offset from where the original logo is.

I think you should reduce the draft angle and also reduce the offset. Try it i feel grateful if this works out

It would work, and that is what I may need to do, but I was posting here to see if there were any fusion gurus who know a workaround 🙂

Perhaps create the geometry of what you need for the "S" and use loft?

How would I be able to get inside of the holes in the S though? I have the same issue with the holes in the B, but in the A it works fine since there are no curves.

This is not the sketch I used, but this is my method:

You'll see I have separated the angular "AAB" from the "S"

I think you should make complete SAAB and then make offset for all letters in one command. Not like this making separate offset for separate letters.
