  5. WEIGH your entire model

Delete Coplanar

Deletes edges between two faces that lie in the same plane, the blue edges in Analyse, so the two faces become one. This tidies the model; it isn't needed to make it solid.

How to use it

  1. Run Analyse and look at the Edges of Coplanar faces (blue) counter.
  2. Select the parts to clean up, or nothing for the whole model.
  3. Click Delete Coplanar.
  4. If the counter went down but isn't 0, click it again. Some models need several passes; stop when the counter no longer changes.

Before and after

Analyse view of a figure with blue coplanar edges; the counter shows 232 edges of coplanar faces
Before: 232 edges of coplanar faces (blue). After Delete Coplanar the blue edges are gone.

Limitations and intentional geometry

Check the result

The blue counter shows 0, or stops changing when you run the tool again. The solids you had are still solid (magenta).
