Editing the Facet Feature in an Optimized Tessellated Model
You can edit the Facet feature in an optimized tessellated model by using the Facet tool. You can open the Facet tool from the optimized model. For more information about specific facet editing commands, see topics in the Creo Facet Modeling Help. Some functionality in facet modeling is not available in the optimized tessellated model.
1. In an optimized tessellated model, in the Model Tree, click the
Facet feature and select
Edit Definition from the shortcut menu. The
Facet tab opens, and the Facet Tree opens below the Model Tree.
2. In the Facet Tree, select the
facet geometries to edit. To help you select, you can click each facet geometry and then use the shortcut menu to show, hide, and isolate different facet geometries.
3. To edit the selected facet geometry, use any of the following commands on the Facet tab:
◦ 
Clean—Cleans the faceted geometry by creating sharp edges or by making the surface smooth. For more information, see
To Clean the Faceted Geometry.
◦ 
Decimate—Reduces the number of facets. For more information, see
To Decimate Facets.
◦ 
Refine—Improves the shape of the facet model by increasing the density of facets and optionally moving facet vertices. For more information, see
To Refine the Faceted Geometry.
◦ 
Relax—Makes the faceted surface smooth by changing the coordinates of the facet vertices in an iterative manner. For more information, see
To Relax the Faceted Geometry.
◦ 
Delete—Deletes selected facets. For more information, see
To Delete the Selected Facets.
◦ 
Fill Hole—Fills gaps in the faceted geometry such that the faceted surface is continuous. For more information, see
To Fill Holes in the Faceted Geometry.

▪ 
Add Facet—Adds facets to the facet geometry by using the specified vertices. For more information, see
To Add Facets to the Faceted Geometry.
▪ 
Split Edge—Adds facets by splitting the selected facet edge. For more information, see
To Add Facets by Splitting a Facet Edge.
▪ 
Flip Edge—Reverses the orientation of two facets. For more information, see
To Reverse the Orientation of Two Facets.
