NX 8.5: Space Finder Error "Start point is on the boundary of bodies."
NX 8.5: Space Finder Error "Start point is on the boundary of bodies."
(OP)
I'm trying to use the Space Finder command to determine the volume of the space inside an assembly. This error keeps coming up.
To remedy I've tried:
Enclosing the assembly in a thing wrapper to "seal" it - no success, I couldn't find a way to make a 0 thickness wrapper that matched the outside shape
Changing the start point (interior point) to other points - many tries no success
Creating a 0 thickness rectangular sheet inside the space and defining point on it - no success
Ensuring the point is not where two different bodies meet, or on the edge of a body defining the space - no success
Anyone encountered this error and/or know of a remedy? Judging by the error it purely has to do with the location of the interior point

I removed the thin shell, and then defined my interior point a different way. I did it as a point between two points (in the empty space) and needed the two points to both be on separate bodies of the enclosing assembly.
