Separates the model into shells depending on the defined parameters
The model is split into shells that can be edited separately.
Dialog Demerge options
Split model into shells
The shells of the model are identified. There is no geometrical connection between the shells of
the model, but they may be in contact or even intersect.
Split model into colour areas
The model is split depending on its colours. Every shell has only one colour. Depending on the
colours of the model, closed shells or unmatched surface fragments are generated.
Split model into surfaces
The model is split into single surfaces. The parameters used for detecting the surface can be
adjusted using Define surfaces.
Object parameters
Keep model context for objects: If you keep the model context, the generated shells become
sub-objects of the model. Alternatively every shell becomes a separate model.
