Hi,
It seems like your problem occurs when objects inside of your block’s definitions are extrusions.
It works better when they’re polysurfaces.

Can we change the topic title to this:

‘Volume command ignores extrusions in blocks’

??

I did but this is really fatal error.

Hi Ivan -

Thanks, I’ve put this on the list → RH-81079 Volume: Issue with extrusions in blocks

@wim As this issue is a regression with potentially serious concequences for anyone relying on the Volume results for engineering calculations I assume it will soon have a stop ship or similar priority
