Sometimes I get project in dwg and after I import it to Sharks I have problems with 3d modeling.
Why?

Because someone do not draw it correctly it has a lot of lines which overlaps (lay on)itself.
This overlap cause problem with 3d modeling like extrude etc.

Please add function which find overlaps and if user want it would give possible to delete it.

What other thinks about it?

Great Idea.

Solidworks for example has the possibility to check a sketch for
> gaps (in a menu box you can specify the "width" of the gaps)
> overlapping (double) lines

I also remember my days at University with ME10.
There you had (in 2D-mode) the possibilty to show all "handles" -
meaning all middle and end line points with special coulored
rectangles.
This also helped a lot to find gaps or double lines ...

Old Vellum 2D had a tool to "remove coincident lines"...
Shark can highlight the gaps, only when the profile is selected AFTER choosing the extrude or the revolve tools...

Can we have a "Check profile " tool, with an option to "repair" ?

Thanks,

JL

The work round for this is to remove all fills from the DWG drawing before it is imported into Shark. Shark and ViaCAD import seems to treat 2D lines and fills as separate entities so it draws outlines and the edges of fills as co-incident lines.
