I have revised a part that was perfectly fine. Now it is hollow on the inside after adding 2 features. Any ideas how to fix this?

Hi all,

I have figured out my issue.

For my hole references I was using the right plane (align) and the front plane (8.75). The part would turn hollow.

I now change the front plane reference to the CL axis at 8.75 and the part is happy.

Probably just stupidity on my end, but not quite sure why that made the part happy.

Not enough information to offer an explicit solution.

Post the model for review. Identify which version of Creo you are using.

To debug this, go into insert mode or use the model player to find out which feature is causing the undesired geometry. Once you identify which feature it is then reroute/redefine it to reflect design intent.

How to use the model player:

If I add a hole where I drew the red box here, it goes to hollow.
The hole is not intersecting anything else other than the reference surface. I have tried referencing the hole off of a plane and nothing, it still makes the part hollow. Creo8.0
