Updating surface wrap recipes

Use the Update All command to update out-of-date surface wrap recipes.

The software indicates its progress on a progress bar. If the update fails during the update of multiple surface wrap recipes, the name of the surface wrap recipe that failed is indicated.

An update failure typically occurs when the interior point selected to define the interior region of the surface wrap, is not bounded by the selected geometry. This may be due to the following:

• The interior is either too close to or is outside the bounding geometry.

• The bounding geometry has holes and cracks bigger than the specified resolution.

To fix a failing surface wrap recipe, you may try some of the following:

• Modify the global resolution.

• Select a different interior point.

• Add coarse local resolution constraints near holes and cracks.

• Close holes in the bounding geometry.
