  3. I am working with a model in SpaceClaim and trying to use the Combine Tool to cut one body out of another. It is failing to work. I really need to make this subtraction. Is there anything else I can try?

      The SpaceClaim Combine Tool can fail if the Combine operation will result in one or more bodies that will be very small compared to the overall scale of the model. One workaround is to try the Overlap Bodies Tool under the Workbench tab. This will often work to perform the necessary intersections. You can then manually discard excess bodies.
