CATIA MACRO: Surface Simplification /Smoothening

[DiaeArrahmane]

Hello guys, is there a way to smoothen or simplify a complex surface using macros?

quick answer NO

But if you provide more info and detail about what you call smoothen or simplify then maybe there is a way...

Well, I have a geometrical set with many surfaces forming together a wide non planar surface. I want to offset this surface, when I do join + offset I get the surface degeneration problem, I dont want to remove any sub-surface, and I am not interested in the details of the surface, that's the reason why I thought of simplifying the surface, so I minimize the sub surfaces count, and get a correct offset.
The final result I want to get is an offset of this surface, no matter how low quality it is, the most important thing is for the macro to do everything.

why don't you try the rough offset function instead?

I don't have the right license rn, I may try it later, but I'm not really sure if it is going to work by its own automatically, because I didn't find any related method on caa documentation. Btw how can I pass the args (surface and offset value) to the command when called in the macro.
