Small Faces Tool

The Small Faces tool detects and removes small and sliver faces in your design. If the small face is tangent to a neighboring face, the tool will merge the small face with the neighboring face. If no neighboring face is tangent, the tool will extend neighboring faces to remove the small face.

You may want to remove these faces before you export the design for analysis if they will have a negligible impact on the analysis accuracy but a significant impact on its speed.

This is one of a few geometry repair and navigation tools included here for ease of access. Their behavior is the same as if accessed from the Repair ribbon.
