The Combine command makes use of separate solid bodies within a part. By using this tool, solid bodies volumes can be added together, subtracted, or produce a solid from the common volume between bodies. The Combine command makes use of separate solid bodies within a part. By using this tool, solid bodies volumes can be added together, subtracted, or produce a solid from the common volume between bodies. Use the Subtract option within the Combine tool to subtract one solid body from another. Use the Common option within the Combine tool to result in a solid produced from the intersection of solid bodies.

Create face fillets to modify and repair imported geometry. Define the size and shape of the fillet using selected faces and edges instead of a constant radius value. Use options such as Curvature continuous, Constant width, Tangent propagation, and Hold lines to define the face fillet. Modify imported geometry using a face fillet. Ensure curvature continuity with faces adjacent to the fillet. Set a constant chord length of a fillet. Define a stopping edge, or hold line, for a face fillet.
