Face

To create a Face in the Main Menu select New Entity - > Build - > Face


To create a Face you need to select input shape(s). The list of input shapes can include shapes of any type; if the shapes are nor wires or edges, the algorithm extracts all edges from the input shapes and works on the obtaineed edges.
The edges and wires do not necessarily have to be closed, the algorithm automatically builds a wire of maximum length from all given edges and wires. If it founds multiple closed wires, it can build a face with holes or some separate faces, depending on the placement of the wires. If some resulting wires remain open, they will be added in the resulting compound "as is".
Check Try to create a planar face to create a planar face or nothing if it is impossible.
The Result will be a GEOM_Object (FACE).


TUI Command: geompy.MakeFaceWires([list of Shapes], isPlanarWanted)
Arguments: Name + 1 wire.
