Hi all,
I would like to know, if there's a way to tessellate only a SURFACE, instead of a FACE. I mean, I want two different tessellations, one for the surface, and one for the face (e.g.: faces that contains holes will have different tessellation from its surface, since surface do not contain holes)
Thank you in Advance

is it not possible?!

You could use BRepTools::OuterWire to get the bounding wire of your face with holes, then create a new (holeless) face from this and tesselate that.

Thank you Tilman Leune!
But how about SURFACE is infinite?! Would this solution work?

I do not know if faces can be infinite - however, you will need to clip the surface somewhere in order to get a finite, tesselatable object.
As a workaround, try to build a rectangular wire on the surface which is really far out, like 100m across and wide or so.
