      The Interference tool in the measure tab and prepare tab only works on solid bodies, not faceted bodies. To detect interference, turn on “Body Interference” in the Display options. This uses the faceting of solid bodies to do a visual comparison of interferences but won’t give you an actual measured interference. The benefit is that it displays in real time and will update when you move an object. The con is that it’s graphically intensive and can be slow with a large assembly.
