Coreform Cubit Version: 2025.8

IssueHello.
I am executing the following commands:
#!cubit
reset
create sphere radius 5
create torus major radius 1.5 minor radius 0.4
create torus major radius 1.5 minor radius 0.4
rotate volume 2 angle 90 about y include_merged
move volume 2 x 0 y 1.5 z 0 include_merged
subtract volume 2 from volume 1
subtract volume 3 from volume 4
webcut volume all with plane xplane offset 0
webcut volume all with plane yplane offset 0
webcut volume all with plane zplane offset 0
imprint surface all
merge surface all
volume all size 0.2
volume all scheme polyhedron
mesh volume all
The mesh is generated but there are errors:
ERROR: /tmp/CBT.ACsJUD, line 17. >>>>Bad Quality Shear Hex Generated!<<<< on Volume 7
(For example, the Shear metric for Hex 2692 is 0 .)
The threshold for a Hex is 0.2

The threshold for a Hex is 0.2
These cells look a bit twisted and the Jacobian is negative. The attached screenshot illustrates such a cell.
What can we help with?
Could you please help me to straighten these cells?
Kind regards,
Siarhei
