Hello everyone,

I need to re-interpolate some surfaces of my Shape. How I can update existing Face with new surface? This part of OCAF is not clear from all available for me information.

Thanks in advance.

Dear Alexander,
Probably referring to OCAF is a misprint, because OCAF by definition is not dedicated for the expected by you kind of work.
The Open CASCADE Application Framework (OCAF) is an easy-to-use platform for rapidly developing sophisticated domain-specific design applications (see for details "OCAF White-Paper" available with public release).

Yes, you are right.

But is it any way to update surface of an existing Face instead of making new Face and copy everything from old one?

Thanks in advance.

Dear Alexander,

yes it is possible.

You can use ShapeBuild_ReShape to replace the face but remember to replace the affected edges and vertices also.
