SEO not working...

For some reason all of the sudden solid element operations wont work on a set of slabs. I have one slab that intersects another and I want to do a subtraction then hide the cutting slab...something I do frequently with no problems. Any ideas? I have no clue why it wont do it...

I would just try to recreate the elements involved in the SEO and then try it again.
Maybe there is some problem with the geometry of one of them?

That was the first thing I tried, but to no avail. Ive had this now happen on a few different elements (all slabs) and the only way to get what I need is to model it in multiple pieces to achieve the cutouts I need....rather frustrating.

Can you post some screen shots with the exact problem?
It may be something that needs Graphisoft's attention.

Yellow slabs are the operators, white slabs are targets. The top one is the one that doesnt work. I do each operation separately.

Here is when the operators are hidden.

If I see it correctly, it cuts the sink, but the upper yellow Operator does not work.
I wonder if the problem has something to do with the fact that these are curved surfaces.
Can you show me a Floor Plan view so I can see exactly the shape of that upper operator?
