- [Instructor] This video, we'll take a look at the process for closing holes in a mesh in Metashape. I'm working in the exercise file, sample set Oh five mesh edit deleted dot psx and you can find that in the folder labeled sample set Oh five mesh edit. So I spent some time here, manually deleting a few chunks of noisy mesh faces. So, which are mostly in these areas here. I also did a little bit of work on this hole underneath the head of this figure. And this will be a little bit easier to see, if we switch our model view to model solid. And that way we don't look at the texture image, we just look at the faces themselves. So you can see we've got a big hole here, big hole here and obviously big hole on the bottom. And so, this process of hole filling is important for a lot of different workflows. For example, 3D printing requires a watertight mesh, so that means every face meets up with another face exactly at its edge,…
