[REQ] close gaps and unify lines
-
To clean up an imported DWG there are several nice plugins that I use for closing gaps and eliminating unwanted edges.
If it's ThomThom's "Close Edge Gaps", or Chris Fulmer's "Close Opens" or "1001 bit tools extend edge to edge" or "stray lines"...I find that when closing a gap, all the plugins basically do the same thing by filling the gap with an additional line.
Is there any plugin that after adding that line would unify it with one, or with both of the lines that it just connected?After closing gaps with a little tiny line, when pulling the surface that is created, it is full with unwanted lines... in a large model it creates a hell of a lot of unneeded geometry (see images below)
the only way I can clean the lines is after doing a 'push pull' I can use the ThomThom's "cleanup" plugin. But maybe there is a way to clean it up before push pulling? cause I don't always really need to push pull the surfaces...
cheers!

Check Fredo's script called Remove Lonely Verticies. It does just that.

CleanUp also does that.

Fredo's plugin is another GEM! Thanks for the pointer!
It would be nice though if it were incorporated into ThomThoms "close edge gaps". An option to immediately eliminate the vertexes (if possible) right after closing a gap - like magic!
Thanks!

That should be doable. It is something I'd been thinking of myself a couple of weeks ago.

Thomthom,
Come on!
It took you eight hours to post the new script... I expected more from you!
Just Kidding!
You're The Best!
