Description

The Mesh RemoveCompByHand command removes components from mesh objects.

Usage

A component refers to a complete group of connected faces. Usually a mesh object contains a single component. But, for example after using the Mesh Merge command, a mesh object can contain multiple components.
The command uses the color red to mark selected components. To see them properly:
- The ViewDisplay Mode of the mesh objects should show faces. If necessary use the Std DrawStyle command to override this property.
- The ViewShape Color of the mesh objects should not be red.
Select the Meshes → Remove components by hand... option from the menu.
The cursor changes to a hand icon.
Select the components you wish to delete in the 3D view.
Optionally select Clear selected faces from the 3D view context menu to deselect all components.
Select Delete selected faces from the 3D view context menu to delete the selected components.
Select Leave removal mode from the 3D view context menu to finish the command.

 ==Description== <!--T:13-->
 <!--T:2-->
+The '''Mesh RemoveCompByHand''' command removes components from mesh objects.
-Remove components by manually selecting them in 3D-view.
-<!--T:10-->
+==Usage== <!--T:14-->
-This is useful, for example, if you have a mesh with two components, and you want to extract a single component to convert it to a solid, as in the case below where a cube houses another cube.

+# A component refers to a complete group of connected faces. Usually a mesh object contains a single component. But, for example after using the [[Mesh_Merge|Mesh Merge]] command, a mesh object can contain multiple components.
-#Choose {{KEY| Meshes}}  →  {{KEY| Remove components by hand...}}  from the top menu.
-#Select component(s) in the [[3D view]]. Selected components are shown in red.
+# The command uses the color red to mark selected components. To see them properly:
+#* The {{PropertyView|Display Mode}} of the mesh objects should show faces. If necessary use the [[Std_DrawStyle|Std DrawStyle]] command to override this property.
-Right-click in the [[3D view]] will give you the possibility to
