I love this command, and I would love it even more if it would also merge adjacent brepfaces that are part of the same cylinder or cone. Is it possible to extend the functionality in such a way?

Hi Rajaa, [image] rajaa: Isn’t this request more suited in the context of MergeSrf command? I think it should be incorporated in MergeFace / MergeAllFaces MergeSrf IMO is more a tool for surface modeling while MergeFace is a means to simplify and purge a polysurface. MergeSrf operates on u…
