_volks_ is on a distinguished road
Hi, i am new to this forum and i was wondering if someone would be able to help me with my problem.


I am using ANSA 13.1.5 and my problem is with clean geometry.


I am unable to remove overlapping faces even if i use HOT POINTS>RMV OVERLAP, HOT POINTS>CLEAN GEOMETRY OR FACEs>TOPO


The only way that i can fix the issue is if i delete faces and create new ones.

The problem that really intrigues me is that sometimes my geometry check would pass and i would save my work and close the file and then when i would perform the same check later on it would give me new errors... I would get geometry errors even if i would merge several parts together after making sure that each one of them is clean...


In the setting i would use
Settings >
Resolution >
Curves :2
Cons resolution> Length: 2
Distortion Distance: 20%
Distortion angle: 0


Settings>
Tolerances:
HOT POINTS matching distance 0.1
CONS matching distance 0.1



Now i am never sure if my geometry is actually clean or not...are there any other settings or options that i dont know about?


Thank you in advance!
