: A more complex option often used for tapered split lines.
: Choose the specific faces you want to taper. Use the Detailed Preview option if available to visualize the direction of the draft. Confirm : Click OK to apply the solid feature to your model. Troubleshooting Complex Geometry ppg244_s02_082.jpg
Are you working in , Solid Edge , or another CAD program, and is there a specific error message appearing when you try to apply the draft? : A more complex option often used for tapered split lines
: Create two different sketches at different heights (one slightly offset or scaled) and use a Loft to connect them, naturally creating a tapered wall. Confirm : Click OK to apply the solid feature to your model
: You select a line (usually on the edge where the mold halves meet) that determines w
: In some cases, it is easier to build the drafted faces as surfaces first and then knit them into a solid.
If standard draft tools fail due to "impossible" geometry (e.g., complex curves or zero-thickness intersections), consider these alternative techniques:
