invalid imbrication of wires

[kunal_shgkr]

I'm trying to create a part using python scripting which is supposed to be thicken afterwards. I am trying to create the whole part using python scripting. I used offset command to create an offset and then thicken the part but the problem is that upon deleting the offset from tree I am able to thicken the part. I used check geometry function to check for any errors and upon checking it is showing "invalid imbrication of wires". Can somebody tell me what does this error means?
Thanks in advance.

Python script?

It works without deleting the offset? Could be there is a dependency on the offset. You could try making a copy of the offset and use that for the thickness.

Code: Select all

copy = someshape.copy()
