Duplicate faces

The Duplicates tool detects and fixes duplicate faces. SpaceClaim highlights the duplicates and will remove them all, or you can select duplicates to exclude from being fixed.

Tool guides

The following tool guides help step you through the process:

	The Select Problem tool guide is active by default. This tool guide allows you to select and fix problem areas that are automatically found by the tool.
	The Select Geometry tool guide allows you to select faces that were not automatically found. Hold Ctrl to select multiple objects or box select in the design area.
	The Exclude Problem tool guide allows you to exclude areas from selection and fixing.
	The Complete tool guide removes the highlighted faces.
