Subtract function in 3D
Subtract function in 3D
(OP)
I am receiving a new error when trying to subtract a solid from another in 3D. The error is : Inconsistent Containment of Intersection Curve. I started with a copy of the object and sliced a segment off. Now I'm trying to subtract that segment from the original piece.

Don't know how to fix it, Ive had to either start the component again from scratch, or think of a different way to get the same effect. eg can't you slice the bit off the original? or use a separate extruded shape? You could try to offset the subtracted solid to make it noticably bigger than the other, so there are fewer coincident edges...
If this is part of a large or complex drawing, draw the part from scratch on a new dwg and import it. Sorry I can't be of any more help.
