Help with the meaning of an error
(OP)
All,
I am getting the following error: "cannot add a new feature to the tool body of a suppressed boolean feature"
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you,

RE: Help with the meaning of an error
I am using NX8.0.0.25
Also, the biggest thing I cannot figure out is that I have no boolean features suppressed before I am getting this error.

Do you have any other parts open that link back to your current work part? If so, the error message may be coming from one of these other parts when it tries to update after your edit.

As for this idea that you have no 'Suppressed' Booleans, make sure that you do not have any Filters set. Go to the Part Navigator, press MB3 and if you see the 'Apply Filter' item toggled ON, try toggling it OFF and see if the helps.

RE: Help with the meaning of an error
Thanks for the reply. I do not have any boolean features suppressed. This part is the only open part.
Maybe explaining what is going on will help. Right now the part is 916 features long. I am trying to edit back at around 120. The features were not a problem before I made a few changes. I know it probably had something to do with those changes but I need to figure out what the error means before I can attack this to investigate it.

Thanks for every ones responses.
RE: Help with the meaning of an error
Is the feature called "Extruded" if it is part of a separate boolean and "Extrude" only if it has an internal or no boolean???? This would be the only reason I can think of.
