Creating Mesh or Surface From Points When Point Shape is Disc Shaped

Hi Forum


i have disc shaped points, and by that i mean a shape thats disc shaped and has the edges folded in slightly [see image - hopefully its clear]. What im finding when i Mesh this is that with the edges slightly folded in i either get a shape that it tries to put a hole in the middle after i use the command 'Mesh From Points/Tunnel', or a shape that has a Mesh surface across the open part of the disc when using 'Mesh From Points/Any of the other options'.



as you can see from the image i have managed to get a half decent Mesh surface over these points [more luck than anything as i just kept trying the same set of commands with different views] but as youll see in image 2, i get what look like, i dont know what to call them, shards, sharp looking bits, needly type things, any idea why this does this? Id really like to understand how to get what i need, which is essentially i triangulated surface without the large triangles that go across the opening
