Where can I find this command?
The MeshRepair command opens the Mesh Repair panel.
The Mesh Repair panel contains mesh information display and repair commands to make repairing bad meshes easier
Notes
| ● | Some STL/SLA printers have problems if meshes contain many long, thin facets. These can slow the printer's slicing process down, produce odd printed results, and run the printer out of memory. |
| ● | The MeshRepair command may be useful when tuning up meshes for STL/SLA printing. |
Steps
| 1. | Select a mesh and click . Information about the mesh is displayed, including the Edge Analysis control. |
| 2. | Select problems to fix, and click Repair. |
| 3. | When all possible problems have been repaired, click . |
| 4. | Use the Advanced Repair Tools to edit the mesh, and then click Finish. |
