Why stream out with broken pieces?

richardyuan

When I deal with some layout with broken parts, I merge them into polygons (From image1 to image2). 

   

But I when I stream out, I find the merged polygons return to broken parts again. Why that happens and how can I fix that?

    Hi Richard, the polygon get break into pieces becoz of vertices supported in strmout command. By increase the vertices may helps, but not all. Using option -maxVertices (allow 5-4000). For your case, since you have round shape, im expecting even 4000 vertices may not able to fix your cases.
