File is not a solid part

Anonymous — Tue, 03 Sep 2019 14:49:51 GMT

I've downloaded a model in various formats from my Fusion360 but when it is opened in SolidWorks it is not solid and can not be 'extruded cut'. i.e. the SW user can not modify the part when they attempt to extrude a hole through the part.

Aha. Care to share the model ? Export as .f3d and attach to next post.

Sorry but it is protected by a confidentiality agreement.

#What I can say is that when opened in SW and a section view is selected it appears hollow. Parts can be added to the model to the model and when section view goes through this area it is solid but not the rest of the sketch.

Sonny, no model, no help. At least not from me!

I can only say that I've never experienced that problem. When I design things in Fusion 360 they turn out precisely;y as designed in the other CAD systems I use or have access to.

You have made a mistake in your Fusion modeling technique.

I suspect that there are multiple issues going on here as it should be relatively easy for the SolidWorks user to repair your errors.

Don’t need to see the mode - just post image of expanded browser.
