Hi,

I have some small issue, which i try now for a while to solve.  
When i join my geometries together with “Join Breps” and then baking the same into Rhino, all surfaces are separated again and can be selected separately.  
I can then select the whole parts and Join them in Rhino, but thats difficult and time consuming task, so i would like these parts baked as one open polysurface.

I would need the joined Breps baked into Rhino as “one open Polysurface”.

Any idea on how this is properly done via GH?

Thanks in advance for any guidance.

KE

Sounds like you need to flatten the input on the join brep component.

If that doesn’t solve the problem, post a file.

@martinsiegrist  
Hi Martin,

thanks for the hint, i had actually on the wrong position flattened and not at the actual “join Breps” component.

Thanks a lot.

Cheers,
