Hi all,
I created a library feature part and when I try to use it as a structural member, it's telling me it's and invalid member profile. I've created it the same way as my other profiles so I don't know what the problem is. I can make a extrude out of the sketch but it doesn't wanna work on weldments?
Hi,
I'd like to 2nd Glenn, please upload your file.
As we can see in the screenshot:
- It's saved as .SLDLFP - correct
- The sketch is added to the library feature (find the "L" at the sketch symbol) - correct
- The sketch is fully defined has has ONE (?!) closed contour - or are there any additional elements and contours?
I doubt if it's the problem for the OP, given that he created it the same way as other profiles which worked, but it appears that (at least in SW2018) the profile sketch must not be a block.
If the sketch is blocked, tha we'll se a plus sign in the FeatureManager or the Block symbol. I don't see anything like that in the screenshot.
Welcome to the forum. My first thought was that the profile hadn't been saved correctly, but from your screenshot it looks like it was, so there must be something else going on. Can you post the file here for someone to look at? See How can I attach a file to a forum post? if you aren't familiar with the process (it isn't intuitive).
