Invisible/missing faces

[slayer001]

Hello everyone!


I'm designing a mold and after doing a "mirror body" I found out that some of the faces were missing (or invisible).

Any idea why this happened? and how to fix it

Thanks in advance!

I'd first try performing a...

View -> Operation -> Regenerate Work

If that doesn't do it, go to...

View -> Camera -> Edit...

...and in the section of the dialog labeled 'Clipping' press the 'Fit Planes to Extents' button and then hit OK.

If you're still seeing the problem, perhaps your display driver is out-of-date. Check the GTAC support site for the latest certified driver and update if needed.

Thanks John


You're right. It has to be a driver, because today, when I reopened the part, one of the two faces that were missing was no longer missing.

I think it won't represent much trouble since when I make any other operation (extrude, substract, etc) the faces re-appear.

If I have any complication, I'll let you know.

I would also run the Analysis -> Examine Geometry command with the face and body checks set. Sometimes bad geometry will cause display issues.
