Bad contours in 3D

Anonymous — Thu, 25 May 2023 16:30:32 GMT

How can improve my contours, when I am in 3D view, and want clean unbroken lines, what can I do..

I have set my contour quality in the 3D window seting to BEST.. but stil my contours look like rubbish, they are broken and to do not connect, especially e.g to slabs merge

cheers

It appears that you have some interpenetration of your forms.
One way to achieve good joints between the forms is to use
SEO with subtraction or addition. Another way is to make sure
that the curved edge of one form exactly matches the curved
edge of the form that is touching it. The latter is considered,
where possible, best practice.

If you can't solve with the previous (correct) recommendations, search for the SPECIAL MENU. There you can find an option to show the intersection lines of penetrating bodies.
