Smooth mesh

Use this option to smooth the triangles in the mesh:

  1. Select a mesh.
  2. Click Mesh Tools tab > Triangles panel > Smooth to display the Smooth Mesh dialog:

    Use this dialog to filter out noise in a mesh.

  3. Enter a Smoothing tolerance. This distance is used to determine the nodes that are affected by the smoothing process.
    Tip: If required, right-click in the Smoothing tolerance field to display the calculator.

    In this example, a Smoothing Tolerance of 20 is used so that the results of smoothing are clearly visible. Normally a much lower figure is used.



  4. Click Apply to smooth the mesh and continue with smoothing.
  5. When smoothing is complete, click Cancel to close the dialog.
