Hello,
I created a complex shape and tried extruding it parametrically but was unable to do it. I'm receiving an error saying "An error occurred creating Feature: "Solid of Extrusion #2"
But when I turn off the "Parametric" option in the menu, It can extrude the complex shape.
I am using Microstation CE Update 12
It does not appear that the shape is a complex shape, you can close the drawing using "create complex shape" then it should work fine.

It doesnt appear that is a closed shape, which is required by the "solid by extrusion" tool.
If this is meant to be a thin walled solid i would suggest you use the "extrude surface" tool then the "thicken" tool to get the desired thickness.
Surface by Extrusion doesn't work parametrically?
It does work.
I suggested this tool since the profile being extruded is not a closed shape
Hello guys,
What i used is a complex shape, the reason why I can't extrude it parametrically and attach a variable on it is because i haven't put in any constraints on it (2D or dimensional). After putting a constraint on the said complex shape, i am able to extrude it as a parametric solid. Sorry for the confusion.
Cheers
