The Sheet Body Method determines the mesh generated for sheet bodies when you do not apply a local mesh method to them. The available options are:
Quad Dominant: Allows you to generate the quadrilateral mesh for the sheet bodies. The default value for Sheet Body Method is Quad Dominant.
When Sheet Body Method is Quad Dominant, mesher cannot perform Weld, Connect, Repair Topology, Deviation, and Quad Layer controls for that sheet bodies.
If the model or geometry has a manual connection, mesher applies the Quad Dominant method as the default Sheet Body Method, even when you set Sheet Body Method as Prime Mesh.
To perform Weld, Connect, Repair Topology, Deviation, and Quad Layer controls you need to scope those sheet bodies under Automatic (PrimeMesh) method.
Prime Mesh: Allows you to generate the quadrilateral mesh for the sheet bodies.
When Sheet Body Method is Prime Mesh, any mesh controls that are incompatible with the Automatic (Prime Mesh) method are ignored. For information on the Prime Mesh, refer to Automatic (PrimeMesh) limitations.
When Sheet Body Method is Prime Mesh, mesher can perform Weld, Connect, Repair Topology, Deviation, and Quad Layer methods.
Note: Prime Mesh does not support for Inflation control, Match Mesh control, Vertex Types and Number of Divisions in Face Meshing control, Edge Biasing in Edge Sizing control, and Influence Volume in Face Sizing control.
