      about ThomThom's, I will study it & will give you news, thx

      I cannot reverse them, since they are the 'interior' of my component, there is no tickness, so if I understood well I must creat a tickness for having external white face and internal blue one ?

      p.s. I saw one issue concerning the circles, it seems they are not totaly complet..but I dont know how to modify them..

      p.s. I succeeded to find an optional solution, I made it handly and filled up the empty spaces with the pen tool ''L'' (after I can build all other details around the component)

        Do you understand now why that component as you drew it could never be a "solid" component? It's exactly what we were telling you.

          It is quite possible to make two components or groups that are NOT 'solid'... but when they are exploded, and then saved as a new component or group they could merge and become 'solid'.
          Because their various faces/edges will merge and then meet the rules about 'solidness' that I set out in my earlier post. 😒

              Read the first post of the thread where you downloaded the plugin. 😒

                ok, just a few minutes

                p.s. for conclude the solid component and be sure I understood well
                like this my reactor component is in good way to be solid ?
                blue faces inside, white outside = no nude faces (blue outside)
                only the circles aren't really good (I think that0s the only issue, but certainly thomthoms will tell it..

                  That's certainly got a chance of being solid.

                  I don't know why you keep ignoring requests to post the component. This could have all been sorted out days ago. 😒

                        it seems it's the circle, but I dont know how to repair it..
