Need a lot more info than that. Error messages? Result not what you expected? No menus?

I just need clean faces. With how the model now is it had all kinds of holes and gaps in the faces.
That looks to be due to poor geometry in the model. Not something that can automatically fixed. When I opened the DWG in AutoCAD I got a warning I'd never seen before, it'd encountered 30 errors and wanted to abort loading the file.

I created a simple cube greeble ruby a while ago that draws an array of cubes in xy, xz, yz, or xyz planes. My idea was to carve out cubes from these arrays to create other 3d objects, retaining the basic cube module, much like the Voxel idea. Attached is 3d object file.
I ran Cleanup on this file. but it was unable to delete the redundant interior faces.
In addition is Cleanup able to remove the unnecessary exterior cube lines while retaining the integrity of the 3d object?

Cleanup does not remove internal faces. It's a very difficult thing to do - determining what is "inside" from code. Look at TIGs list of plugins, he have at least one that does that job.

"unnecessary exterior cube lines" - you mean like mending a set of colinear edges into a single edge? That is can do.

Thanks for the help, I was working on a Solidworks file and wanted it as an sketchup file. So I made it a .dwg and there is the result.
Do you know a way to get a solidworks model into a sketchup file?
-
Afraid not, I've not used Solidworks - don't know it's export capabilities.
-
Have you looked at TIGs tools?
-
Solid Solver and Fix Solid should both do it - at least they where made to do so. Perhaps you have an edge case there.

Have you tried Remove Inner Faces plugin?!
Where? there is no such name when searching at this forum or at the ruby library depot.
-
You find all of them in the Plugin Index: http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=250026 (Resources > Plugins)

Yes I included that thread also, visually I did not find anything.

Use the browser's search feature to quickly find things. (Often F3 activates it)

Remove Inner Faces by wikii in the Plugins Index.

I have, in fact I have been trying to compile a Rubies folder on this subject, which is far from complete. Here is what I have so far.
TIG solid solver
TT cleanup
Fix solid
ky delete Interior faces
wikii remove Inner Faces
none of them perform interior face removal -

Thanks! it was the first one I tried a while ago, it also did not meet the test.
I added to my list, in the event someone else is searching this subject.
