Cull Degenerate Mesh Faces

The CullDegenerateMeshFaces command removes degenerated mesh faces (area=0) and degenerated mesh edges (length=0). Unwelded vertices will be left. If any vertices are orphaned in the process, they are also removed.


A mesh edge is degenerated.	A mesh face is degenerated.

Some STL/SLA printers have problems if meshes contain many long, thin facets. These facets can slow the printer down, produce odd results, or run the printer out of memory.
The MeshRepair command may be useful when tuning up meshes for STL/SLA printing.
