I think the checkMesh error is more related to some bad projection since it only affects a low number of cells/faces. Sorry for the wrong alert.
OK. Yes, all faces have a normal direction, and it is important for projections. Blender has an Overlay option Show Face Orientation you can use to see face orientations by color (red/blue). Another alternative is to enable Display Face Normals overlay, which shows a line for face normals.
Hi, thanks for developing this very useful tool! I created a rather complex blocking. Preview and export are working nicely.
However, in the end after running checkMesh on the exported result, I get errors about negative volumes:
Also, while creating the blocks, I noticed that the blocks and/or faces apparently have some orientation. There were different directions displayed with the extrusion tool, sometimes opposite for faces side by side. If I select them nonetheless the resulting blocks disappear after clicking "Build".
Illustration:
I find it quite hard to keep properly track of the orientation, especially, if multiple O-grid-type blocks in different directions are required. Is there a way to modify and clean up the orientations?
Thanks!
