Feature offset

3D Design Volume Model

Hello

I made the drawing of a mold with an elliptical shape by entering the points one by one and then once finished I made an extruded boss, after  thinking about it I would like to shift the shape of my sketch, to give me an extra margin of 15mm all around, so I used the feature offset function and offset outwards by 15mm.

I have it rebuilt so that it takes up my extrusion and the message: impossible to rebuild using the sketch, the sketch does not have a contour geometry, display of the intervals of 0.224mm.

What are these interval displays? Never seen this before? Thank you

Hello

Try to put your sketches  from the inside into construction lines because I have the impression that they are not!

It's okay I'm attached to it, I started again leaving my sketch profile in the middle, I made from it an entity offset of 20mm, then I had it rebuilt.

From there it rebuilds it to me as it  was originally without taking into account my offset, so I modified the boss function by removing the original contours and selecting my new offset outline, rebuild and there it's ok.
