I want to fill around an array of circles inside a rectangle.
Approx 800 circles. (I've only shown 25 circles in the example below because OBD crashes with more).
Defect 1 :
The fill tool ignores some of the circles - is there a limit to how many it can detect?
Defect 2:
When I try to move the filled area OBD locks up and crashes.
This is a simple 2D hatch/fill capability that SS6 can do it without a hitch.
Hi B Turvey
can you share sample files with your posts and what yo are trying to achieve. Its hard to understand the scale of the objects you are modelling, and what the ultimate goal is. There maybe alternative workflows to achieve your goal that might be more appropriate regardless of the issue you have reported.

25 x 25 array of 200mm holes, used create region tool:
I found creating this was quick, but there is an appreciable pause when selecting the resulting element to manipulate it. Once selected copy or move (for instance) operations behave at normal speed.
As Brenden says, what is the objective?
Scaling it up to a 50 x 50 array was too much, so we will have to investigate this.
