Hi Nader,

Thanks a lot for the tips. Actually I was using Manifold_with_boundary_tag, but I had that problem. I tried  Non_manifold_tag but it didn't work and when I used the  Manifold_tag, result was exactly like Manifold_with_boundary_tag. 
I am saving data as polyhedron. 
I would like to have the result like "nefertiti.off" in "CGAL-3.5\examples\Surface_mesh_parameterization\data", which the borders are free and not connected. 

Thank you,
Tina

Dear Tina,

if i understood well, you tried to use the CGAL surface mesher (e.g. CGAL::make_surface_mesh).
If you use the oracle that intersects a polyhedron, the surface can be "open".
You should use the Manifold_with_boundary_tag (or the Non_manifold_tag), rather than the Manifold_tag
that tends to close the surface quote: "but after triangulation I will get a close object which all of the borders are connected".

Here is a link to the documentation : http://www.cgal.org/Manual/last/doc_html/cgal_manual/Surface_mesher/Chapter_main.html

Yours,
Nad.

Hi all,

I applied the cgal triangulation on the 3D cloud points that I have.  My data is like a surface which is like open object but after triangulation I will get a close object which all of the borders are connected. Do you have any suggestion to solve that.

Thank you,
Tina
