Cannot trim object in a sculpted design

[Anonymous]

hello all,

I have a sculpted form with a cylinder that protrudes through the back of it. I'd like to be able to trim off the tube flush with the curved surface of the sculpted part.  I have not been able to find a solution using the trim tool in the Patch mode.

See attached... just want to trim off that excess tube that sticks through the back...Since the back is curved in order for the tube to meet the inside face of the shell, it had to protrude out the back.

Thanks

Harry

I highly assume the TS body is in the browser a solid BREP thus you are not able to use surface trim

use split body instead

Thanks,

But I am using Split body and it keeps coming back with Compute Failed.

Must be doing something really basic wrong here... this should be trivial I'd think...
