Centroids of a mesh

[Andrea_Maffi]

Hi, i have a mesh with 72538 faces and i want to find the centroid of each face.
I have tried with “face boundary” and then “area” component but i have a strange result (second image) and i have extra points that i don’t want (i circled some of them in red).

Someone can help me?

The “extra points” you have circled are the centers of the vertically oriented faces in your mesh.

You can group your centroid points by their z-position and then choose to display only the points associated with the top (horizontal), middle (vertical), or bottom (horizontal) faces. Works with your simple mesh since the centroids are in 3 goups.
