If you check the COMPOUND it is likely to contain one or more shells. If
it only contains faces, you will have to construct SHELL(s) from these
first, then SOLID(s).

Hi Frank,
That sounds right, but sewing tools doesn't exactly create TopoDS_SHELL.
>From the documentation it can create a Shape object or as in the code I've
written (derived from STLReader code), it can create a Compound. I don't
know how to create Shell from these objects.

On Thu,
Hi Jayesh
If I remember correctly, the sewing tool only creates shells, and you
have to manually "wrap" them in solids. Here is some code I've used to
do this in the past:
# Note that shells is a Python list of shell(s), and it is assumed that
if there
# are more than 1 shells, the 1st is th
Thomas,
I guess the way to do "cast" in pythonOCC is as follows:
unionop = BRepAlgoAPI_Fuse(TopoDS().solid(aShape), box)
[as seen in the routine ShapeToTopology that you have written somewhere]
But that doesn't help either. I get.
RuntimeError: Standard_TypeMismatch
TopoDS::Solid
Did you mean
