Good Tip for a strange situation with substract NX7.5

[PSI-CAD]

Hi everybody
During my last session NX7.5 with the substract function it was impossible for me to select the tool body. The unite function was possible.
I created a sample example to reproduce the problem with a block and a cylinder (have a look at the video)
I found the solution by using the reset button !!!

That looks like something you should report to GTAC, if you haven't already done so...

I was not able to reproduce the problem using version NX 7.5.2.5 (which will be the next MR released in a few weeks).

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

In fact, I have able to reproduce in the same NX session and after reset the problem disappeared. Then I logged an IR to gtac (same number than the video file).
By this post I wanted only to explain the solution if anybody will be in the same situation

I juste received the answer from gtac. A similar problem may exist in assembly with some face unselectable and the reset buton was the solution.
