PolygroupIt not creating groups properly

Hi All

Having some issues with PolygroupIt.

You can see from the attached here I have drawn my polypaint guides but when I click PolygroupIt from paint it only creates one new additionla group. It as if it ignores one of the guides.
I have a pure white model and strong black guides but the problem persists.
I’ve tried a few variations but it just wont play ball.
Polygroup it

Any ideas what’s going on?

Hello @garbagematt ,

The easiest explanation here would be that your polypaint does not 100% enclose that area with 100% black polypaint. Make sure your polypaint line is solid black with no gaps. Look for areas where the line may be too thin or made of shades of grey.

Otherwise there’s not much I can tell you without examining your geometry.

Thanks Spyndel
I did give this multiple attempts with different line thickness etc but I couldnt get it to add more groups.

I also tried it on a simpler version of the geometry with some success which made me wonder if the geom might be too complex in some way.

Thank you for taking the time to reply!

It’s possible you are working at too high a mesh resolution for that feature. Try reducing polycount.

Ah okay! Thank you Spyndel. I’ll try that on the next round
