      I am working on a project that needs cut and fill analysis. I am trying to use CutNFill-- my topo groups are solids, named correctly, and I get the colors that show the cut and fill areas. But, the volume numbers both say "0" for cut and for fill. Anyone have any ideas?

        Please post this kind of specific question in a relevant thread.
        The CutNfill thread already contains several posts about why two seemingly solid objects subtract to give a non-solid, which in turn reports 0 volume.
        This is not a limitation of the tool itself, but one of SketchUp's built-in methods to manipulate solids.
        If the subtractions leave tiny edges SketchUp faces to form the related faces in the results, and non-solids can't have a volume !
