Custom Subassembly wont extract solid

I have created a kerb subassembly with kerb and backing, for some reason I cant seem to work out the kerb will extract as a solid, but the backing wont, I dont think it is the code set as I have a subassembly similar shape and extracts both kerb and backing, using the same codes as the new one, any one have any ideas

Hi @CharlieGreene7827 

 

For the solid problem, I recommend that you use the same direction of shape creation (clockwise). The shape of S1 is in the correct direction (L1, L6, L5, L4, L2).

 

Whether or not the backing is to be created, insert the P10 at the kerb creation and split the L4 into 2 parts from that point. This will help you not to replicate or overlap links. It is preferable to assign multiple codes to an element, in order of priority.

 

I see that you have at least two points and auxiliary points in the same position (P8 and P15), which create lines that are not useful (unless you are going to place some parameter that modifies their position). If they will not change position, you could directly use points P7 and P6, instead of P8 and P14 respectively.

 

Remember that it is not necessary to put codes to all the points and/or links of the geometry, this will bring you inconvenience when you configure the code set styles.

 

Best Regards.

Hi Ronald

Thanks changing the sequence of the shape construction worked, the points that are on top of each other are for an kerb option

There is still a problem if you see the screen shots below, I have tried to build a multi use kerb assembly, the assembly is now transitioning between all but one kerb type, this is a footpath edging kerb and is very unlikely to need to transition between road kerbs, but for me that is not the point, for me at the moment with the edging kerb EF in the type the backing twists even though I have constructed it in 1 continuous clockwise manner, also in the last section of the region the solid is missing, do you have any ideas
