[Question] Visual Scripting: Missing initial surfaces with sweep [Solved]

Hello everybody,

i created a cross section of 3D lines, then combined them into a path (Path3D) and extruded them (SweepByPath).
So far, a 3D solid has been created. However, this is no longer the case (see pictures) and the initial surfaces are no longer created during sweep, so only 2D surfaces are created.

Does anyone know what this could be due to?

Thanks a lot

Marco

Hi Ralph,

thanks for your answer. I checked it, but it was activated. Luckily I found the error by going through the links afterwards. I forgot to connect the 4 top lines (red circle) to the sweep, so the cross section was not closed and the sweep was incomplete.

Regards,

Marco

Hi Marco,
Can you check to see if the ClosedVolume is ticked?
Without this the Sweep function will create an open surface and not a closed volume.
Cheers!
Ralph
