Other problem:biggrin:
1 - I create a parallelepiped
2 - I create a cylinder with the option "up to the top" and select a face of the parallelepiped.
3 - insert, between prisma options, a 20 mm offset
4 - Right-click on the feature > insert into a new...
impossible!!! prism 2 refers to prism 1.(Figure 1)other way.
1 - I create a parallelepiped (the feature is called prisma 1)
2 - I create a cylinder (the feature is called prism 2)
3 - Right-click on the feature prisma 2 > insert in a new...
Okay, this is possible:finger:
4 - Now, I go inside the newly created body, double click on prisma 2
5 - published the properties of the prism, instead of "quota" put "up to the top" and an offset of 20 mm
6 - click ok(Figure 2)miracle:confused:

as never this behavior. first not and then yes?!? there is perhaps some option to activate:confused:
Thanks again

hi guys from the forum, someone can explain to me this "dark" mystery:confused:
when you have 5 min you can make a quick test...thanks guys:finger:
 
Hi.
you have to change the option for prophecy and put right -> 20mm

That's how it goes. but if I want to use the option to the top and give an offset, as never changes the behavior.

  • if the offset option gives it in phase of creation of the cylinder then I can not insert the cylinder in a new body.
  • if instead (as you say) I use the distance option I can insert the cylinder into a new body. Now, within the newly created body the remote option of the cylinder and put up to the top with offset, everything works.
as never before and then yes:confused:
 
I would not like to answer you a banality but the message that appears seems clear to me.
cv5 fails to manage a boolean operation with a solid with limitation up to a surface of another body.
I think the algorithm was defined with the simple distance function. with this "restriction" cv5 better manage the Boolean operation.

However if you try to define the cylinder height with a formula should go. in the formula go to take the thickness of prism + the mm you want to add.

anyway I think it's a limitation and not a bug.

Try to hear who makes you cv5 support.

I bet I already know his answer in English (w... a... d...)

Thanks falonef. the question arises from the fact that often, during the initial stages, it can be useful to insert a feature in a body and then to do a boolean operation. Maybe this one lies a certain distance from another.

it seems that in this case the leotards are not for catia of the simple "containers" but they release the features from existing ties.
In this case it does not allow me to do the operation because I have a connection with another feature.

thanks:finger:

if I do so before entering prisma 2 in a body the operation does not work because prisma 2 is always tied to prisma 1
 
of course I wanted to say the thickness of the prism and not of the cinlindro therefore:

in the formula to define the distance of the cylinder go to take the thickness of prism + the mm you want to add.

depends also on the parde/son condition of the plan.
For example, if you try to create a prism by leaning to the face of the preceding one, assigns the condition to the plane, but this time creates the parallel defined plane from a plan of the axle system.
When you use the command "entry into a new boy" you will see that you don't have the problem.

Hi.
