Closing mesh...

[SimonPlatten]

 I'm using Fusion 360 version 2.0.16476 X86_64 [Native] on macOS 12.6.6 (21G646) on iMAC17,1

I have a very large mesh which is a shell, I want to close it so its stronger for 3D printing.  I've looked on YouTube and the options shown don't seem to be there, specifically Close Mesh ?

How do I do this ?

Do you think that you want to convert the mesh to a solid body?

[SimonPlatten]

I would however there it's so large it doesn't return, it would be very useful (suggestion for future version) to have some sort of progress dialog instead of the rather useless mouse animation which never changes.

Share your troublesome Mesh and we can have a go at coercing it into a Solid body if that would help.

When choosing the "Convert" option, nothing is selected, even if I select the mesh from the body, nothing is selected.

I've just exported to upload, however its 18MB.  I've managed to do it now, just took a very long time, better information during the process would be very valuable.
