Enclosed surface

      Hello,

      I have a solid that I would like to create a surface from. I detached the surfaces of that solid and then merged the surfaces together. The problem is when I merge all the surfaces together in Spaceclaim it automatically generates a solid. How can I create an enclosed surface without it becoming a solid? Bellow is a screenshot of my cuboid.

      Thanks in advance,

      Tereza

      Hello, 

      If the surfaces form a close cube merging them would create a solid out of the surface. It is intended. 

      You can delete any one surface and then try combining it will result in one single surface. 

      Regards,

      Dear Devendra,

      Indeed that is possible to delete a surface - however then it is not an enclosed surface. Otherwise I will always have minimum two surfaces. Is there a ways to make that into one? Thanks in advance.
