Convert mesh to solid

simonRX28B — Sat, 18 Jul 2026 07:30:48 GMT

I'm really struggling to convert my mesh to a solid. I have a mesh of a fish fillet shape. Ive tried, repair, generate face groups etc before attempting to convert.

Any advice/help would be greatly appreciated..

Which License do you have? Basic is restricted to triangulated face results. (Just as useless as an STL)

If you have a basic license, then it is Modify > Convert Mesh and follow the selection prompt. (Takes a minute or so.)

Any other License will provide Brep faces.

Might help....

I converted your STL to a Prismatic solid using a Fusion Subscription license. Model is attached.
