      hello,

      i have a mesh , where the edges are too sharp
      does anybody know a ruby, which can smooth a mesh (already modelled whith the skp-modelling tool) by adding triangles and smoothing the edges after this,
      when the skp-smooth function has not an influence on the mesh anymore
      thanx a lot.

        Quad face tools triangulate with the soft/smooth property applied.

          hi, thanx for this, i already tried this ruby, but have no results yet. have to learn, how this works.
          i managed to transform my mesh into 'quads', entering the angle and generate the mesh, but the result is not, what i expected. there must be a trick!
          regards stan

            Can you post the mesh or part of the mesh you want to be smoothed?

              If you want to modify the mesh by subdivision, you should look into Artisan. If you just want to smooth the edges of a box, Round Corner could be enough.

                solved! thanx to all.

                artisan works perfectly for this / round corner also for edges:

                thanx a lot to the forum!
