Merging and saving restoration

The last step in the wizard is the merging, which will combine (merge) all the individual designed elements (copings, connectors, etc.) into one or more mesh(es). For each physical element you plan to produce, one mesh will be created.

Merging and saving will start as soon as the dialog opens. The progress indicator will show the current progress. Stop the merging process on the Saved files tab by clicking Cancel Merging [2] or restart it by clicking Restart Merging [1]. Once the merging and saving has finished, the resulting output files will be displayed in the box [5].

Once the merging is completed, the wizard is complete and you cannot go back to any wizard step directly. However, it is possible to revert the process by clicking Remove Existing Merged Parts [3]. This will allow you to:

Change the Optimize setting [4].

Re-enter Wizard/Expert mode to change or adjust any available wizard or expert mode step (see expert mode for more explanation).

warning sign Please note that all modifications done on a merged design will be lost, if you click Remove Existing Merged Parts [3].

Click Next to close the wizard. Additional modifications can still be performed to the construction by using the context menu. See: Change a finished construction.
