mesh volume - inconsistent results?

Hi Marco,

I’m using mesh.volume() to compute the volume occupied by a mesh, but I’m getting weird results.

The mesh in question is the red one

First probel is that it says that its volume is 622281333.333 which is way larger than what I’d expect (that should be about 62 cubic centimeters, but the mesh represents an object that is at max a few hundred micrometers in width so that can’t be right).

The weird thing is that if I use cutWithMesh to only consider the part of the red mesh that is in the magenta one (and then fillHoles to close the cut mesh) I get a larger value for the volume, although the mesh is a subset of the original one:

Any idea what might be going on here?

Uh okay, well good to know that the problem is with the mesh and not vedo. I like this method of visualizing the normals too, vedois so great 😃

Thanks Marco!

does this work?
