Curve to Mesh bug

Post by edschiffer » 19 Dec 2011, 12:25

don't know if people are aware of this, but try the following:

. get a circle
. turn it to a mesh via Model> Create> Poly.Mesh> Curves to Mesh
. change Tesselation to Medial Axis

you'll get this =( :

Interesting-- might have to do with the fact that a circle has an inifinite number of "medial axes" and the algorithm can't decide or creates too many around the circle.
