How to avoid outlines on smoothed geometry?

Enscape General
1

I modelled a ramp for cars. This geometry is smoothed of course.
In the render however the in this geometry used triangulations gets represented with oulines - How can I avoid this?

I have seen this in the latest preview version as well. Might be a new bug in the outline algorithm?

I have found that if you are making a curve from stitching component bits together then there shouldn’t be any internal faces left in the resulting shape:

With internal faces:

Just to make sure that this is not caused by a bug from our side, any chance you could send us the modeled ramp? If you follow @Gadget_1 's advice, maybe that also helps already? Thanks in advance!

…thank you All for your help :thumbup: Shame on me: frankly, I have not understood what Gadget is proposing me to do :wink: :frowning: :wink:
Thanks Demian Gutberlet :thumbup: of course I’d like to that - which mail address should I use?

btw - this is my running Enscape version, which isn’t a preview unless I’m wrong

@EGIESTO , thanks a lot for the project. I’ve not been able to reproduce this behavior, but also noticed, that you’re running an outdated version of Enscape. :slight_smile: Could you kindly upgrade and try to see if that helps accordingly?

:thumbup: thank you Demian Gutberlet for your investigation - Hmm, as far as I understand it, I am up to date, anyhow, this is what I get as info from you (?) :wink: :slight_smile: obviously I don’t understand the update system yet or do you mean update to the current preview ? …

Pardon for the confusion - if there has only been a small update (which includes smaller bug fixes for example), you will not get a message telling you to upgrade if you click that button. Also, I was informed, that the corresponding fix(es) for this which will also resolve some other issues with outlines as well will be included with our next upcoming preview. And, of course, with our full release 2.6. The next preview should be released fairly soon. :slight_smile:
