Why, when I create a polar or rectangular array of holes and then try to subtract them from the parent solid, I get a msg. that the array of holes is not a solid. The fix is to Explode the array and then subtract all the individual "holes" from the parent solid.
By default arrays have become associative. You can select them after creation and change the number of rows or columns and the array of objects will update. As you discovered you have to dissociate array items with Explode to use the arrayed objects as individual solids.
OK - got all that but I cannot understand why, if they default to Associative, they are tagged as being NOT solids. What purpose does that serve?
If I create a polar array of 100 holes in a plate, I have to, after EXPLODING them, individually subtract them from the plate. That is just plain dumb.
