This lists the repair options displayed on the Solid Doctor dialog. The repair options relevant to the selected fault are displayed in the Repair Options drop-down list.
Repair option |
Action |
Attempt automatic repair |
Automatically fixes the fault. This combines other standard listed options to try to repair the solid. |
Extract surfaces and edit them Extract surfaces around gap and edit them Extract surfaces around hole and edit them Extract surfaces at edge and edit them |
Removes surfaces of the fault. Enters surface edit mode to fix the surfaces. |
Delete surfaces |
Deletes the faulty surface. |
Delete selected surfaces |
Deletes highlighted surfaces |
Fix surface |
Enters surface edit mode when a surface is selected. |
Add selected surfaces to solid |
Adds the selected surfaces and/or solids to the main solid to fill the open hole. |
Fill gap with tangential surface Fill gap with non-tangential surface Fill hole with tangential surface Fill hole with non-tangential surface |
Creates a fill-in surface for the selected hole in the solid. |
Fill gap by removing boundary Fill hole by removing boundary |
Extends the surfaces adjacent to the hole to try to fill the hole. |
Link and heal edge across gap Link and heal edge across overlap |
Heals the open edge. This may increase the solid tolerance. |
Ignore intentional large hole |
Marks the selected large hole as intentional. |
Mark problem area and enter edit mode Mark hole boundary and enter edit mode Mark gap boundary and enter edit mode Mark problem areas for later repair |
Creates composite curves around the faulty surfaces and holes. |
Global fault with unknown fix |
Not currently available. For future development. |
Enter edit mode |
Enters surface edit mode without changing the solid. |
Fault repaired |
Displays if the fault has been repaired. |
Heal edges at vertex |
Heals edges of the surfaces that meet at a point. |
Replace vertex |
Extracts, heals and replaces the surfaces. |
