FreeCAD 0.20.1, revision 29410 (Git) 2022/08/10, Win10, 64 bit
I've got an stl file, downloaded from manufacturer's website.
I import stl file, select the mesh.
Select the Part workbench.
From Part dropdown, I select "Create shape from mesh..."
I select tolerance to be 0.01.
I wait Shape is successfully created.
I select the new shape.
From the Part dropdown I select "Convert to solid"
I wait again I get:
Code: Select all
13:22:28 Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 2, in <module>
<class 'Part.OCCError'>: Shape is not a shell
13:22:28 Cannot convert _900_QTPY_RP2040001 because Shape is not a shell.
Code: Select all
App.ActiveDocument.ActiveObject.Shape.ShapeType
Not really sure what's going on. Would love to upload the .FCStd file, but it's 7MB, board won't allow. The raw stl is 2.18MB, also too large to upload
What am I missing? Thanks for any help
