Ever wanted to convert entities on all edges - not just the boundary?

To also get the insides, turn on the edge selection filter.

To do this, press F5 on the keyboard. A toolbar will pop up. Choose this option…

Go “normal-to” the sketch, drag select a box around the model.

Converting entities now captures everything on the inside too!!

NICE!!
