Loop returns non-planar vertices?
-
Yea - the API doesn't mention a lot of things. Most method that accepts Point3d object also accept Vertex objects. (And it is quicker to skip the conversion of vertices to point3d if you can)

Good to know...

What cute tiny face! 0m2

Can you trap it by getting
face.loop.edgesandif edge.length < ????then you transform oneedge.vertices[0]position to beedge.vertices[1]position... so the very short edge 'heals up' - your face then 'disappears' if its a triangle! -

I think you can also get the non-planar message when points are co-linear (which is a sub-set of being co-planar?)

Ooopps sorry chris! I will keep asking- thanks for letting me know.
Not a problem, thanks for working with us!
As for wondering if the problem has been solved yet, it looks like they are still actively working on solving it. Its been a busy topic this morning.

EXCUSE ME: DID ANYONE FIGURE THIS OUT YET?
Yet? This topic started two and a half hour ago...

PLEASE I ALSO HAVE THIS PROBLEM. IT IS HARD TO UNDERSTAND. PLEASE LET ME KNOW I NEED TO FIX IT TOO. THANK YOU.

The face I got the vertices from was very small. SU has problems then.
Do you have the same scenario? Are you trying to build a face from the loop vertices of another face? Or do you have another set of 3d points? Maybe your issue isn't source in the same issue as mine. -
Phone a friend?

Hi Scott, the question you have is a bit different than the one being discussed here. You might just start a new topic asking the whole group your question - which seems to be specifically "How do I make a wing surface from a list of 3d points" or something along those lines. Your question is a bit burried here in this topic, and you will probably get more eyes seeing your dilema if you just made your own topic. Do you have any programming experience? Not that it matters, you can always learn, I just thought I'd ask.
