hello everyone i was working on a code to calculate volume of a 3D model: model = Sketchup.active_model group=model.entities.add_group(Sketchup.active_model.entities.to_a) if (group) vol=group.volume/61024 UI.messagebox vol.round(2) array = group.explode group=model.entities.fill_from_mesh(…

Model A is a Manifold Solid. Model B is NOT a Manifold Solid. If the separate ‘cubes’ in B were grouped as individual Manifold Solids, then you can get their individual volumes. BUT if you have them ALL in the same context, then you will see that three of the Edges within the common geometry are …

Because it is not a solid it cannot have a meaningful volume. Separate the boxes into separate solid cubes and then get their volumes - then add them together ? Alternatively make sure they don’t have a common edge - even a 0.1mm gap will do ! If you look at my old volume tool, here: Sk…
