Hello,

How can I run the Mesh ToolsCheck Objects” command from a python script? If too impractical, is there another way to get the same kind of diagnostic information about a mesh from scripting?

Here is a little context:

I’m doing Boolean operations between 2 watertight meshes that sometimes produce invalid meshes. I would like to run the Mesh Tools Check Objects command on the resulting mesh. In case of problem, I would undo the operation and try again with one of the mesh translated just a little (generally solving the triangle/triangle intersection problem).

I need a good mesh as it will be used for 3D printing later…

Regards,

Bruno
