    I would assume the nodes are not perfectly planer.

    You should be easily able to equivalence those nodes

    Thank you very much sir

    I am having this problem when i am generating solid mesh, although the geometry is planar, the mesh formation is nor planar or distorted. Also, in some cases, where the element in the middle parts seems to have some kind of depression or distortion, which is creating problems while reflecting and duplicating.

    what should i do to improve the quality of the mesh or adherence of the mesh formed with the geometry. I see no warning but when reflecting i see overlapping or gaps.

    Kindly suggest
