Description

It is a powerful tool to analyze and automatically fix problems in 3D geometry supported by ACIS kernel (3D solids, surfaces).

Note: It is recommended to run DMAUDIT whenever 3D geometry is imported.

Methods

There are two methods to audit the drawing by selecting one or more entities or the entire model:

Check problems
Fix problems

Options within the command

Check: Checks the 3D geometry in the drawing for errors without fixing them.

Fix: Repairs errors.

Settings: Audits the drawing in function of one of the options you select.

Back: Returns to the main prompt of the command.

Report panel: Redirects the output of the command to the Report panel.

Note: Depending on the value of REPORTPANELMODE variable, it might be necessary to click on the red exclamation mark in the lower right corner to see more details in the Report panel.

Copy to file: Reports the output of the command in a file.

Audit level: Sets the strictness of the check.

Low: Runs basic analysis (for example, catching common fatal topology errors).

High: Goes deep (for example, catching self-intersections in solid bodies).

Medium

This is the default level.

Coincident faces: Checks and fixes coincident faces. Requires audit level set to High.

Nested blocks: Checks and fixes entities in nested blocks.
