Surface Wrapping with gap closure

brm123 · June 4, 2015, 17:55

Hello,

I'm trying to close holes by doing a surface wrap.
It's not an option to use a target surface size bigger than the hole size because i want to achieve an accurate wrapping.
To close the holes, I activated "Perform Gap Closure" in the Surface Wrapper Properties and entered a suitable Gap Closure Size.
Unfortunately, this doesn't affect the result. The holes remain in the surface.
Could you please tell me, why this doesn't work and how I can make it work?

Generally I avoid gap closure. It's much easier to ensure you get what you want by either filling or patching over holes. Load up your geometry in surface repair and patch/fill holes to get what you need.
