SOLIDEDIT SHELL why is it not possible to enter metric non integer value
Hallo,
maybe I oversee something or I am not aware about that rule for that command.
I work with Bricscad Ultimate V24.1.07
Tried to use SolidEdit Shell command on 3d Solid . The command only accept values as eg.1 or 2 or x (metric mm setting) but not eg. 1.25 or 1.30 values.
Do I have to change a setting somewhere?
In that case where or is it a given fact with only integer values and how do I overcome this situation?
With best regards
dinge

Hi Francis,
In the attached video (using V24), I drew a rectangle, extruded it and then used the shell command from a toolbar icon.
I also tried it via the command line using SOLIDEDIT, Body, Face, etc. and got the exact same result.
Both times I put in 1.25mm as the shell.
Can you post the 3D Solid to see if there is something else stopping this working?

Hello , dear Mr Waight,
thanks for your swift answer .
Copied the original 3D solid in new drawing. Remodeled this 3dsolid , the 3D model needed 3 faces to be removed. To my surprise today it works with 1.25 or 1.35 shell distance form the command line .
Used the original drawing, did regen and redraw command before. Created simple box as your example and it worked fine ! I do have to mention in the first attempt to create the 3d solid I had made errors and had another 3D non solid inside , but managed to erase it from the 3D solid . Is this the error that prevented the shell command from working properly. I did also create a simple box in the same drawing then and the same behavior happened hence my question in the forum but today it works fine. Did the closing down from Bricscad and the reopening erased the paramtric error ?
Attached the new drawing and old drawing as is. Please keep in mind i am an absolute beginner in Bricscad, the drawings are exercise for me , next step is parametric 3d modelling.
Again thanks for your swift answer.
