| 06:19.00 | birdmun | so i generated a rim but each time i draw it i get an error msg |
| 06:19.05 | birdmun | Warning: region unioned into region at '/finhub1.c/hub1.c/fullhub1.r/hubfr1.r', lower region info ignored |
| 06:19.24 | birdmun | any good ways to avoid this in the future? |
| 06:31.42 | Twingy | hrm |
| 06:32.02 | Twingy | if I were coherent I could help you |
| 06:39.06 | birdmun | i understand :) |
| 06:39.37 | birdmun | i have logging enabled ... even if i dont get a response in the next couple hours i will still be able to find it |
| 06:40.31 | Twingy | stop back at 12PM EST |
| 06:40.37 | Twingy | people will be awake then |
| 06:40.52 | birdmun | np |
| 07:13.49 | brlcad | birdmun: yes, don't make regions out of regions :) |
| 07:14.24 | brlcad | marking something as a region is what defines that object as taking up physical space |
| 07:14.45 | brlcad | in any given CSG hierarchy, there should only be one region along any given path down the hierarchy |
| 07:15.11 | brlcad | you have two there.. fullhub1.r unioned hubfr1.r.. it shouldn't |
| 07:15.40 | brlcad | it should either union what's inside hubfb1.r or hubfb1.r shouldn't be a region in the first place |
| 07:16.30 | brlcad | all depends on the model as for what's the best solution |

| 07:25.49 | birdmun_ | what i did was made a cylinder and then removed two cylinders from it ... one on each side |
| 07:26.02 | birdmun_ | so i was disconnected for a few moments what did i miss? |
| 11:32.41 | *** join/#brlcad rogier (n=rogier@16-65-dsl.ipact.nl) |
| 14:43.10 | brlcad | birdmun_: from the sound of it, there is likely that there was nothing wrong with your CSG operations |
| 14:43.25 | brlcad | just an error in how you're using/understanding what it means to be a region |
| 14:57.59 | *** join/#brlcad grumbel_ (n=grumbel@i5387C304.versanet.de) |
| 14:58.12 | brlcad | takes a while for new modelers, but think of the difference as being a pattern for a shape versus being actual material |
| 17:27.01 | birdmun_ | ok can i add a region to a region ? |
| 17:28.15 | birdmun_ | if i would have removed the inside from a cylinder and then added the center of the rim as a completed unit ... design, bolt holes and all |
| 18:18.55 | brlcad | you can add a region to a region, but you're not supposed to -- you should only add combinations to regions and regions to combinations |
| 18:19.03 | brlcad | or combinations to combinations |
| 18:19.11 | brlcad | but not regions to regions |
| 18:19.59 | brlcad | again it has nothing to do with the CSG operation -- you can remove insides, add to the center, etc.. none of that is a problem |
| 18:20.14 | brlcad | the problem is at what level in the hierarchy are you calling objects a region |
| 18:22.27 | brlcad | you might benefit from not having/using any regions for starters until the modeling hierarchy is a little more familiar |
| 19:31.42 | birdmun_ | alright |
