V5 Surface Healing and Join
V5 Surface Healing and Join
(OP)
Kind of confused on the whole Surface Join Vs Heal commands
Both seem to do the same thing? I am attempting to turn a V4 surface model into a Volume in V5 and export the volume back out to V4. Surfaces have many gaps between the edges which I am in the process of healing.
Question - Should I be healing the surfaces 1st and then trying to join them, or go straight to Join with merging tolerance adjusted to compensate for gaps?
Thanks in advance?

RE: V5 Surface Healing and Join
first know the basic difference between join and heal.
join tries to close the surfaces with the given tolerance, but doesn't change the geometry.
heal does the same as join but it will change the geometry ( shape)
its left upto the area in which u r going to apply the join or heal command.
