Mating plane to CAD model plane

[[Ch...]]

I know this has been on the forum before but I can't find it. so apologies in advance.

How do I mate the plane that calypso creates to the CAD model? In the picture, i want to get rid of the big grey plane.

CAD, CAD file, comparison.
click on compare then click on the plane and hit Apply

Or

CAD, Modify CAD Model, Heirarchy
Just delete the plane feature. Sometimes calypso just likes to throw its own cad features in for no good reason.

CRAP.

Those two methods are exactly how I remembered doing it in the past and neither are working here. I've got a stubborn model where I can't get rid of it. It's not a showstopper but it's really annoying.

For anyone following, I'm going to open the model in solidworks and resave it and hope that fixes it. Anyone else have any ideas?

Are you saying that big ugly plane shows up when you import the model? You can always go into the "modify CAD entities" and delete or hide features from the CAD model. I've had weird things with solidworks where theoretical planes show up when imported into Calypso.

Try playing around with these settings...

This used to happen to me constantly. Everything would be fine when I created and saved it, but upon reopening, random artifacts like that would appear. I could always delete them in the CAD hierarchy though. Although, randomly, I'd have to repeat the process because the artifacts would reappear.

Single Feature Cheat:
Extract the plane you want from the CAD model.
Paintbrush the settings from the "ugly" plane, to the newly extracted plane.
Copy the "ugly" plane name. Delete the "ugly" plane. Re-name the modified CAD plane.

Not something you want to do for numerous features, but in a pinch...

Keith you beat me to the punch on the cheat. When to post exactly what you presented and there is your post.
Like you said the only work around was to re-create the feature, copy criteria from the 'what the f' feature and paste to the new one.
It is important the renaming of the new feature exactly like that of the deleted bad one. If not exact, the references for selected feature will not recognize it.
We have this same issue with cylinders and cones that why I said feature.
This problem seems related to the model despite doing a healing process from within Calypso.
We have both Inventor and Solidworks here so if time allows I will try to clean the solids up in a 3d designer program.
This has seemed to help about 80% of the time with the Calypso created grayed feature.
