Emboss Failed: Error: Cannot create emboss feature at specified depth. Adjust depth.

hey, I designed a pattern that I'm trying to do emboss on a ring but I keep getting the same error: Error: Cannot create emboss feature at specified depth. Adjust depth.

can someone tell me how to fix it? can't

Hi,

1. This is not possible because the surface is bent twice

2. When it comes to the inside, the sharp edges of the sketch cause self-intersections

My process for placing your sketch pattern on the concave surface of your ring is very labor intensive but it works.  I point out, in the Screencast, that one sketch shape will not Emboss on the ring body I use in my process, I do not know why, I hope you can modify it in some way to make it emboss.  The model I used in the Screencast is attached.

Hi,

Contrary to my statement in post 2, I was able to determine that the cause is not the sharp edges alone, but the way the line segments are connected to each other.
In the screencast I show my observations with an example.
However, the relationships shown do not allow any conclusions as to whether these "errors" occurred during the first creation or only subsequently during various conversions.
