Auto Stitch Tolerances

The Tolerances area of the Auto Stitch dialog box allows you to set the initial and final tolerances you want to use for the stitching. You can also set the step value between each iteration, set when to stop stitching and limit the number of iterations per tolerance value:

• Start Tolerance - determines the initial tolerance. Positive and Negative buttons next to the start and finish tolerances can be used to increase/decrease this values (by an increment equal to the Step value).
  
  
• Finish Tolerance - determines the final tolerance. Positive and Negative buttons next to the start and finish tolerances can be used to increase/decrease this values (by an increment equal to the Step value).
  
  
• Stop Number of Boundaries – this sets when CopyCAD will stop trying to stitch triangle boundaries together. You can use the Positive and Negative buttons to set the number of boundaries you want, or type in the number.

When CopyCAD has repaired holes in the mesh so that only this number of triangle boundaries remain, no further iterations will take place. If you are stitching an open model, enter 1 to stop the stitching when only one boundary remains – the model's open outer boundary.

• Step - determines the increment to go from the Start Tolerance to the Finish Tolerance.
  
  
• Max iterations per tol - limits the maximum number of iterations at any given tolerance value. This is a safeguard against excessive processing.
