    Sections not forming properly with skin thickness activated.

    Problem Description

    We are having problems with Maxsurf Stability not forming sections correctly at the bow. We have found this seems linked to the material thickness.

    Steps to Resolve

    There was limitations seen previously when using the skin thickness. Although it works almost in all cases we sometimes advise not to use this option. A way to get around on this is to assign "0"mm skin thickness to the problem surfaces in Maxsurf Modeler.
