Issue:
The lattice from CAD face doesn't match up with the CAD face shape as I expected it to.
Applies to:
- Lattices, CAD faces
Cause:
This is because CAD faces are essentially 4-sided patches that are trimmed to a certain shape. When the CAD face is reparameterized, it uses the untrimmed surface, resulting in your lattice not matching the trimmed shape. This is a limitation with the CAD face format.
Solution:
We are actively trying to improve this behavior. In the meantime, we recommend trying out different blocks to create a lattice from your part:
-
- Filter Mesh by Flood fill (to prep your part for lattice creation)
- Lattice Body from Surface Mesh
- Lattice Body from Volume Mesh
- Voronoi Volume Lattice
- Lattice Body from Quad Mesh
