When using the 'Custom Weblink' option, make sure your copied address starts with just "http://" and not "https://"
Polyhedra with self intersecting faces or a large number of faces can cause performance issues during the boundary fill operation. Generally, Fusion will complete the operation with a little time, but some polyhedra with self intersecting faces will fail to compute. When this happens, the faces of the polyhedron should be left as individual surface bodies with visibility off.
Is there additional support information provided?
