Summary0000518: - surfaceFeatureExtract - Feature detection
DescriptionsurfaceFeatureExtract -minLen 0.003 -includedAngle 160 -writeObj -manifoldEdgesOnly constant/triSurface/xxx.stl xxx

I'm at the moment trying to use sHM for meshing a geometry inside of a damper.

For quality reasons I'm using the surfaceFeatureExtract feature to get more accurate meshing results. unfortunately the inner corners aren't recognized by the tool.

The use command with the settings is attached on top of the message. From my very limited programming background it looks a bit like as if an abs() function could solve this problem.

For visualization reason I've added a slide.

Thank you very much for your support.

Best regards Kais

Check that those missing edges are manifold. Run e.g. surfaceOrient to get a consistent surface orientation.

... checkeds the suface orientation everything was ok.
Additionally to that I exported the geometry as an IGES file, to see if there is any relation to the CAD system I use, and meshed the surfaces with netgen. Afterwards export to STL (surface check / orientation showed no issues) and did the surfaceFeatureExtract command with the same results.

Can you attach a surface which replicates the problem? I've tried e.g. the flange snappyHexMesh tutorial flange.stl but see no problems.
