<body class='hmmessage'>Hello,<BR>
<BR>
I've generated a mesh from input points using vtkPowerCrustSurfaceReconstruction. I then do some filtering in order to remove degenerate data, get the triangles, reduce the number of triangles, and finally smooth the surface. I am trying to get the volume inside of the triangle mesh, however the vtkMassProperties-GetVolume function is not giving me the right volume. I assumed that the problem was because my mesh is not completely closed (i.e. there are holes in the mesh), so I tried using vtkTesselateBoundaryLoops to close any holes. Although this method covers most holes, there are still holes in the mesh. Any thoughts as to how I can close the mesh completely? Here's my pipeline<BR>

vtkPowerCrustSurfaceReconstruction <BR>vtkCleanPolyData //Remove degenerate polys and unused/duplicate points<BR>vtkTriangleFilter<BR>vtkDecimatePro<BR>vtkSmoothPolyDataFilter<BR>vtkTesselateBoundaryLoops<BR>

Thanks in advance,<BR>
