Hello.


1.
I modelled a littlebit complex outline blocks.

Of course it is made by combination of boolean operations, however,

when I try to convert it to actual building outline blocks,

"Error : Additional planes required" message pops up.

I attached my dsb file, so please check this up.



2.
When I use boolean operation, It doesn't work between some blocks.

I selected two outline blocks, and clicked boolean icon, but nothing

changed after a few seconds. This phenomenon not always happens of

course, but in between some special blocks or surfaces.

So, I want to know is, what is the proper condition to use boolean operation?

I can't find any help documents in web help.


Best regards.
