Bug with smoothing in VW11/11.5


Recommended Posts

There seems to be a bug in behaviour of the smoothing functions with VW11.0.1/11.5

More often than not, VW11 is grossly oversimplifying polygons so that they no longer bear any resemblance to the shape of the original object. Polygons of 100 vertices are reduced to something like 7 after any smoothing (or no smoothing).

I cannot see why this happens with some polys and not others or why so many vertices are lost.

Strangely, I have found that on most occasions when this happens, undoing, zooming in and retrying will allow smoothing to complete properly. However there are some polygons that will not smooth whatever I do and an example file is available here:

With VW10.5 smoothing was consistently good.
