The Tolerant Volume Extract feature enables you to generate a volume even when there are gaps between the bodies. You need to define the maximum allowable gap tolerance between the bodies.

To create the volume, use the Volume Extract tool in the Prepare tab. By enabling the “Create Tolerant Volume” option in the options panel and specifying a maximum gap tolerance, the volume will be generated when the gaps are smaller than the set maximum.
