The MeshRepair command opens the Mesh Repair panel, providing tools to analyze and repair problematic meshes efficiently. This is especially useful for preparing models for STL/SLA printing, where issues like long, thin facets can cause errors or performance problems.
Select a mesh and click Check Mesh.
A detailed report on the mesh is displayed, including an Edge Analysis view.
Identify problems from the report and click Repair to fix them.
After resolving all issues, click Next to access Advanced Repair Tools for further adjustments.
Make final edits and click Finish to complete the repair process.
The panel provides a summary of detected mesh errors and tools to address them. Error types are automatically highlighted when detected.
Degenerate faces: Removes faces with all vertices at the same location.
See: CullDegenerateMeshFaces.
Zero-length edges: Removes edges with overlapping vertices.
Duplicate faces: Eliminates overlapping faces.
Non-manifold edges: Extracts faces joined by non-manifold edges.
See: ExtractNonManifoldMeshEdges.
Inconsistent normals: Fixes reversed normals.
See: UnifyMeshNormals.
Disjoint pieces: Separates unconnected parts of the mesh.
See: SplitDisjointMesh.
Additional tools for precise mesh editing:
Align Vertices: Aligns selected vertices. (AlignVertices)
Match Edges: Adjusts mesh edges to align. (MatchMeshEdge)
Delete Faces: Removes unwanted faces. (DeleteFaces)
Patch Face: Repairs individual faces. (PatchSingleFace)
Fill Hole: Closes a specific mesh hole. (FillMeshHole)
Fill All Holes: Automatically closes all detected holes. (FillMeshHoles)
Split Edges: Splits selected mesh edges. (SplitMeshEdge)
Swap Edge: Adjusts edge connections. (SwapMeshEdge)
Rebuild Mesh: Reconstructs the mesh with uniform topology. (RebuildMesh)
Unify Normals: Ensures all normals are consistent. (UnifyMeshNormals)
Undo: Reverts the last action. (Undo)
