I am trying to make a sign for my mother in law for mothers day (I know day late and a dollar short), and I have exploded the text for the sign so I can tie everything together (see below).
However when I explode the text it turns it into a ton of little lines that can then be edited. That is great when I am in the sketch mode, but when I go to manufacture, and I have to select the contours I am having to click on each of these little exploded lines, and it is taking forever. Is there a way that once you have exploded everything, and you have completed your sketching you can then make them all solid lines again so you don’t have to click on a million lines in manufacturing? Hope that makes sense.
The reason it’s small line segments is because it’s not a closed loop.There is a break somewhere in the letters.You can install the sketch checker extension and run it and it will show you where the breaks are.You can also exstrude the drawing and it will allow you to click once on the whole drawing and it will select everything for you.This works sometimes even with broken lines.
@Heath thank you. I downloaded the sketch checker app, and that helped. It looks like the issue was that there were some very tight places in the text that were to short, and Fusion assumed they were breaks. Once those were fixed everything became solid lines.
