Hello Kyle,

If you are using the method: LCDD -> GDML -> ROOT , which is probably the script you are talking about, then you can check the overlaps also using the ROOT geometry tools.

Please let me know if you still have an issue checking for overlaps.

Best,
	Maurik

I can't install SLIC, due to compatibility issues, on my local machine and it was struggling to use X11 forwarding from a machine where it does work. However, I found a Python script on the same page that I was able to get to render, so it fixed my problem anyway. This properly shows the vacuum box.
