It is a little finicky, but by doing a solid extrude and then importing a mesh over and then making the mesh a solid, I was able to use the combine feature to make a cut (requires two solids). Even more amazing, it was a cut from a JPG that I edited a bunch and changed to a PNG, that I converted to a SVG, that I converted to a STL, that I then converted using this tool from a mesh to a solid.

I need the solid. Mesh Enabler was THE promise. Thx and best regards. I'm using Inventor 2016 Pro on 8.1 64bit with the newest Mesh Enabler and have the same problem.
