PolyNURBS Fit disappearing when changing tab

Hi,

I have a problem using PolyNURBS Fit.

It's pretty simple: I fit PolyNURBS on the result of my topology optimization in Inspire and I can see it as long as I am in the PolyNURBS tab. Just as I change my tab it disappears from the screen. It remains visible in the model tree but I has zero volume and mass. If I try using fit on simpler volumes (ex. a cylinder) it works fine and I can still see it once I change tab.

I have a decent experience in various versions of Inspire and this had never happened before

    Hello Simone,

    I believe this behavior happens when you exit the polynurb tool. It could be due to polynurbs might be missing surfaces and the geometry is not a solid component yet. Please try to repair it before exiting the PolyNurbs tool. If the issue persists, I suggest you to create service now ticket for Global technical team.

    I tried to use the fixing tool for PolyNURBS, I had indeed some red intersecting facets but even fixing those didn't change anything. It still disappears after I exit PolyNURBS tools tab. I'm not sure I can create a ticket having an academic license
