Here you go, click this!

It's the very first post of this thread. In fact all plugins will be found on the first post of their respective threads

Armed with more info from Simone Nicolo I now have a better method for detecting coplanar faces - the same method Sketchup use. I think it's 100% reliable. No more messing about with tolerances.

Highly recommended update!

Hey Thom, I am having some tolerance problems on a script I'm working on. Comparing Point3d objects. Do you have some insight that might help me make my comparisons more stable?

Chris Fullmer

Oh darn, I see the solution you are using really is specifically for face co-planar-ness detection. So it will not help with my point comparison. I do have 3 points though, and they should all be on the same line. So maybe I can use the same concept, and test if all 3 are on the same line, instead of just tesing if 2 of them are identical. I'll let you know how it goes.

They should be on the same line - and two are identical? On the same place?

I've found my tolerance flaw - it is my brain's intolerance for writing code til 4:00 in the morning. I am not having tolerance flaws, but I was having classify_point mis-use issues. I am getting closer to figuring it out.

Does this script erase co-linear lines or lines on top of each other?

thomthom

? Edges on top of another edge? Is that pre SU7 models?

It's an imported .dwg file into an SU8 model.

Thom, could you explain what the option "ignore normals" means?

"Normal" - refers to the direction of the face. You can have two co-planar faces next to each other, but one facing up, and one facing down. When "Ignore Normals" is enabled it means that coplanar faces with inverse normals will be merged.

This is something I hope to be able to improve in V3 - better descriptions.
