The model on the left was a result of BooleanDifference, the right, Wirecut. Is there a reason I don’t get the lower tangent edge on the wirecut? Both used the same Simplified Crv. Model attached. I use Wirecut as it’s a pretty quick command, but in this case I wanted that tangent edge to push-pul…

[image] Andrew: I don’t suppose there’s a command to go the other way? To rejoin tangent polysurfaces into one surface? Explode the polysurface into individual surfaces or ExtractSrf the desired surfaces as individual surfaces. MergeSrf with Smooth=No the individual surfaces into a single s…

Hi Andrew - [image] Andrew: My wish is that both commands would produce the same result (as per BooleanDifference). WireCut should follow the CreaseSplitting setting, yes. I’ve put this bug on the list as RH-67032 . Note that, when using a closed curve, the result will be as expected. Thank…

Note you can use _DivideAlongCreases _SplitAtTangents=_Yes to get your tangent split back after the fact.

Thanks Helvetosaur, I forgot about that one!

That’s done it. Thanks David!
