Edit regions

In some instances, a translated region may require editing. Reasons include the following:

• A surface is translated with trim going the wrong way.
• A loop that should be used as the outer edge is used as the inner edge.
• The natural border of the surface is used as the outer edge.
• The surface contains a hole that must be removed.
• The region includes a self-intersecting loop.

Inner and outer regions can be repaired on faces. Only inner regions can be repaired on a quilt.

1. Open a file that contains surfaces or wire geometry.
2. If necessary, right-click the surfaces in the browser and select Copy to Construction in the context menu to copy the required surfaces to the construction environment.
3. In the browser, double-click the Construction folder to open the construction environment.
4. On the ribbon, click Construction tab Surface panel Edit Regions .
5. In the graphics window, click a face to repair. The selected face is highlighted.
6. Click regions in the face to keep. Filled holes are not planar but follow the contours of the underlying surface.
7. Click Done. The selected regions are retained while unselected regions and unneeded loops are removed.
