Cannot Create Doors - 'Offset Limited To...'
-
I am trying to create a door. I have a rectangle against my wall. I use to Push/Pull tool to try to push the rectangle through the wall but the push gets stuck. I receive the error Offet limited to ~5 13/16" (my walls are 6' thick). When I rotate the camera to the other side, I see the rectangle cut out but when I try to select the rectangle with the Push/Pull tool I select the entire wall. I have tried using CTRL while using the Push/Pull tool but that extends a rectangular box past the wall.

As you can see by switching to color by axis style, the two faces of the wall are not perfectly parallel, so the pushpull can not work as expected. Cutting a hole I mean.
You can open an hole by pressing ctrl while making pushpull and then intersect the two volumes, but I suggest to keep the model clean and correct the wrong parts.

Great, thank you.
