When i try to create a truss from lines, i get this message:

Truss maker can`t work: segment overlap

What seems to be the problem?

I'd be guessing you have a segment overlap.

Seriously though it means you have two (or more) lines overlapping (along their length) so it can't create the truss.

thanks for the answer. you helped me.

Even i understood what "overlap" means, i was confused about that "segments" part. Later i figured out that the segments are the lines i draw, so it must be some of them are overlaped.

Thanks for the help.
