Area


Area mesh quality control is based on the algorithm of area calculation of meshing elements. It can be applied to meshes consisting of 2D meshing elements with 3 and 4 nodes (triangles and quadrangles).

To apply the Area quality control to your mesh:

  1. Display your mesh in the viewer.

  2. Choose Controls > Face Controls > Area or click "Area" button.
