If you are seeing border geometry it usually means there is a hole or your shape has no thickness.
A solid has to be a manifold shell of faces, a watertight container, otherwise it is just a mesh.
There are other basics about solids but without seeing what you have it is all guesses.

That must be it - no thickness to my mesh - thanks

Making a surface drape with Artisan, and need it to be a solid to use SU Solid tools afterwards on other geometry.

The Artisan geometry is the problem no matter what I do. Solid inspector points out border of geometry as the problem - but can not see any problems along the border of geometry. What am I missing ?

I know I could do it with te layers option in layout. But whatif I just wnat to use a "frontpage" template for the first page, and then want to choose another template for page two. I have made both templates, and they are both in the template options box on start up. But how do I get the template for page 2 in action, when starting the document with "frontpage" template ?
