Problem with "Swept" feature: can't set tolerance = 0
Problem with "Swept" feature: can't set tolerance = 0
(OP)
In the past, one could set the tolerance on a swept feature to "0" in order to get sharp edges (ie: imagine sweeping between 2 cross rectangular sections).
In NX4.0.3.3 MP01, I am getting an error:
"Special usage of zero tolerance is no longer supported. Use Preserve Shape toggle instead."
Problem is, the toggle doesn't seem to achieve the sharp, consistent edges as the zero tolerance method used to.
Any suggestions on how to work around/fix this?
Thanks.

I don't know what else to say without seeing your model.
