Description

This command is a powerful tool to analyze and automatically fix problems in 3D geometry supported by ACIS kernel (3D solids, surfaces).

Note: It is recommended to run DMAUDIT whenever 3D geometry is imported.

There are two methods to audit the drawing by selecting one or more entities or the entire model:

The command opens the Command Context panel.

Entities:

Select entities in the drawing: by default, the panel lets you choose which entities to select.
Entire drawing: selects all entities in the model space.

Settings:

Action

Lets you set the audit mode.

Check: checks the 3D geometry in the drawing for errors without fixing them.
Fix: by default, repairs errors.

Audit level

Sets the strictness of the check.

Low: runs basic analysis (for example, catching common fatal topology errors).
Medium: this is the default level.
High: goes deep (for example, catching self-intersections in solid bodies).

Redirect output to panel: Toggled on by default to redirect the output of the command to the Report panel.; Note: Depending on the value of REPORTPANELMODE variable, it might be necessary to click on the red exclamation mark in the lower right corner to see more details in the Report panel.

Check and fix coincident faces: Toggle on to check and fix coincident faces. Requires audit level set to High.

Check and fix entities in nested blocks: Toggle on to check and fix entities in nested blocks.

Copy output to file: Toggle on to report the output of the command in a file.

Note: The options within the command line reflect the options within the Command Context panel.
