Creates a temporary 3D solid from the interferences between two sets of selected 3D solids.
Interferences are highlighted with a temporary 3D solid that represents the intersecting volume. You can also choose to retain the overlapping volumes.
Pressing Enter starts the interference testing of pairs of 3D solids and displays the Interference Checking dialog box.
The following prompts are displayed.

-
Specifies a set of objects to be checked. If you do not select a second set of objects, all objects in this selection set are checked against each other.
- Second set of objects

- Nested selection
-
Provides access to individual solid objects that are nested in blocks and xrefs.
- Select nested objects. Specifies which nested objects to include in the selection set.
- Exit. Restores normal object selection (not nested).
