Heal Errors

Use the Heal Errors command to repair the geometry with a specified tolerance value.

1. Use the Find Errors command to check the geometry. If errors are detected, the Heal Errors command is available.
2. Select solids or surfaces to examine, using one of the following methods:
   • On the ribbon, click Repair tab Repair panel Heal Errors .
     Note: "Bodies" refers to solids and surfaces.
   • In the browser, right-click a body and select Heal Errors.
3. Select bodies to heal in the browser or graphics screen or choose Select All.
4. Set the Allowable Change tolerance.
5. Click Analyze Selected Bodies to obtain a report of how many errors are fixed at this tolerance. The errors that are fixed highlight in the graphics screen.
   Note: We recommend that you use a small tolerance value. If errors are not repaired, then slowly increase the tolerance value and click Analyze Selected Bodies to obtain a new report. This action ensures that the original integrity of the surface is maintained.
6. Click OK to apply the tolerance and heal the errors or click Cancel to exit the command without fixing errors.
