Topic: Split Body in Inventor Fusion

Hey everyone,

This is my first foray into using Inventor Fusion, and im a bit stuck. I have a button array that I am wanting to design up, and they will be mounted inside a cylinder. This means that I want to have the profile of the buttons to match the outside casing of the remote.

I have created a body and put it in the place that I need it in, but when I choose Split Body and try to split the buttons, it spits the dummy and doesnt split all of the faces properly and I end up with a broken body. Is this because I have too many curves? I have attached the file so you can see where I am getting stuck, if I could get a bit of a hand, it would be great.

Thanks!

Murphy has spoken, and as usual, as soon as i posted this, I managed to figure it out. I created an arch and then used that to do the splitting, which seems to have worked properly.
