Finding open boundaries on solids

You can highlight any segments of selected solids' boundaries which are open (not properly linked) within tolerance.

  1. Select the solids you want to check.

  2. Click Visualisation tab > Tools panel > Open Edges to display the Open Edges Information dialog.

    Any open segments of the solids' boundaries are highlighted:

    The dialog tells you whether the solids are fully linked:

  3. Click OK. Any open segments of solids' boundaries are no longer highlighted.

    If there are small holes in the solid, fix these using one of the following methods:

    • Convert the solid back to surfaces, increase the tolerance and re-make the solid.
    • Select the solid and click Manage tab > Fix panel > Solid Doctor.
