Remarks

If the resulting surface name already exists, the name will be incremented automatically to avoid duplicates. Sewing when selected, allows adjacent surface faces which lack tangency (they do not smoothly flow from one surface face to another) will be stitched together in accordance with the sewing tolerance. The tolerance controls the maximum normal deviation from one surface face to the next in which those adjacent surface faces will be stitched.
