Question:

When merging slabs, a message prompting failure appears. Why?

Solution:

The premise of merging slabs is that the slabs are tangent to each other, belong to the same element, and have the same attributes (excluding display style).

If a merge failure message appears, you can check the following aspects:

• Check whether the slabs to merge have consistent attributes.
• Check whether gaps exist between slabs.
