Trim surface selection issue
Trim surface selection issue
(OP)
Howdy,
I'm trying to trim a surface (generated by offset) using a 3d sketch (splines on surface). SW allows me to select the sketch as the trimming tool, but won't allow me to select the surface to be trimmed. I've seen SW fail to allow selection of surfaces when looking at a sectioned view of the model, but this appears to be different.
Thanks in advance,
Dustin

RE: Trim surface selection issue
In either case, you would need the entity (sketch [if that would work] or surface) to completely bisect the surface you want to trim. If it doesn't span the full length/width/whatever of your surface, it won't work.
