[DesignModeler] Error with boolean subtract in Design Modeler

Naveen Kumar Gulla · March 13, 2018, 04:32

Hi,

I have a brought a marine propeller into the design modeler, and around it have put a cylindrical enclosure.

When I try to perform a boolean subtract (target body is the cylindrical enclosure and tool body is the propeller) I get the following error:

Error: Boolean operation failed
Context: Geometry Engine, while generating Feature Boolean4

does anyone have any suggestions as to how I might get around this?

any help would be greatly appreciated!!

thanks
