RE: solid by face in v5

pc12:

If the surfaces that you brought over from V4 create a closed volume, you can use the close surface function in part design.

If the surface do not you can then use these surfaces as splitters.

RE: solid by face in v5

A) Are you trying to extrude a face, or close a volume?
B) If the surfaces do not close, there is almost a 100% chance that you cannot use them to split (without extending them)  A gap would also represent a face that does not completely intersect the part that it is cutting

Please clarify your situation.

sorry, if the question was not clear.
i have closed faces and i want to create a solid.
i mean, in v4 you could do in this way:
create a volume with closed faces then a solid by solid/complex/volume.
how to do in v5?
best regards
fabio.
