Hi Niklas,

thanks a lot for improving your great tool !

Once you have rewritten your code I will try it with my geometry.

Best regards,

Niklas,

it works with tolerance 0.85 !

Now I will try it with layers around the cube.

And with a more complex geometry.

Great tool !

Hi,

I made the changes.

Now along the edges the mesh is perfect.

Some small problems remain at the corners. Have a closer look at the second picture.
