Collections of surfaces or triangles that define logical regions on a parametric or a mesh body
Face groups are usually defined when importing a CAD model, but they can also be created manually by using
Texture & Color Mesh and then converting the color to a face group.
Once defined, face groups can be used here:
- During the cluster detection for creating supports, every field created by section or intersection of face groups with clusters is treated as a separate cluster.
- When searching for part orientation, use face groups to exclude areas from receiving support, thus affecting the ranking of orientation results.
