  | |  | What Hexagon really needs | What Hexagon really needs 2005-11-04 - By Kevin Babcock
Back Still learning Hexagon and one thing that is really missing are good in depth tutorials. There are some simple ones but nothing that deals with a more complex project. Amapi had a very good CD of demos that someone put out and I'm trying to use it with Hexagon.
This is a spot were Eovia should step up to the plate and provide some good in-depth tutorials, maybe even include some of the reasoning on how they approach a given project. Evioa's web site has nothing in this regard and provides only two short tutorials with the product. This is a huge short coming in my opinion.
One thing I do like which I have hated in the past is the .pdf manual. I am a big fan of print manuals and prefer them but the addition of short movies showing the tools in actions has made me appreciate this particular .pdf manual more then the printed version. I've not looked at my C5 manual yet but I hope it takes a similar approach.

thanks for the suggestion
i have just tryed that alast it didn't work
I even tesslated the block into smaller cubes with no luck
for what i can tell, it seems if you do a series of bolean subtractions and some of the cuttings go in right angles to previous substractions, this messes up the object you are trying to make as the boolean cutting follows along the direction of the cut and so makes vertices in the direction as it were,

Triangulate your model(s) before you boolean, it'll help. First thing you do after you perform a boolean, triangulate the results.

Unfortunately, I believe this is normal. Carrara is a surface modeler, not a solids modeler. Doing stray-vertex cleanup is always a strong possibility with booleans.
