      I've been trying to make a simple DC that copies a 2d rectangle along one axis.
      Something isn't working and when changing a value or dragging the scale handles the DC disappears.
      Also, the scale handles in the Z direction isn't visible.
      Could someone take a look what I have messed up, please?

        Hi

        a bit of a challenge, then discovered thickness of the DC is zero (2D?) whereas lenY for the picket was given a value of 1cm, decided to push pull some volume and it fixed it. Set it to 0, but option to change. Had to add the Y scale as well as at thickness=0, the z scale was hidden (another DC bug)

        Cheers

          Thanks.
          So do I understand you correct that 2d components won't work in a DC?
          The whole Idea was to quickly create an array of 2d rectangles that I can cut with the 2D boolean script to match the shape of, for example, a facade.
          So having it 2D is a must.

            2D will work, but an error on the original seems unfixable, other than making it 3D
            So redoing with just 2D elements with no use of lenY works okay
