Using this command, you can create surfaces from a polygonal model automatically.

1.

Click Insert > Surface > Auto Surfacing or click  on the toolbar.

2.

Select a mesh data and click OK and hide mesh data.

·   Mesh – Specify mesh data for which surface has to be created automatically.

·   Use Reference – You can select mesh to be used for patch layout. Usually reference mesh is decimated original mesh data and created number of surfaces is double of reference mesh’s face.

<Target Mesh>              <Reference Mesh>

·   Number of Surfaces – This option controls the total number of surfaces created.

·   No. of Control Points / Surface – This option determines the number of control points along U-direction and V-direction per surface. These two numbers are always the same.

<Control Points>

·   Smoothness – Smoothness of the resulting curve.

<Smoothness: Less>             <Smoothness: More>

·   Geometry Capture Accuracy – This option controls the degree of resemblance of the created surface with the original model of reconstructed model.

·   Patch Size Regularity – This option controls the regularity of patch.
  

·   Relax Initial Mesh – This option generates relatively uniform surfaces.

·   Remove Sharp Patches – Removes the sharp patches.

·   Remove self-intersecting patches – Removes self intersecting patches.

·   Match Surface Globally – If this option is enabled, all created surfaces are matched after creation.

·   Continuity Type – Type of continuity. G1 continuity means the tangency agreement with adjacent surfaces. Thus, if you select G1 option, the generated surface is smoothly connected with its adjacent surfaces.
