Hello everyone,

I have a wire showed on the attached picture (wires). How can I create 3 closed wires from it ? When I tried to make

  ShapeAnalysis_FreeBounds::SplitWires(wires, GLOBAL_TOLERANCE, true, closedWires, openWires);

I've got 1 closed wire and 2 opened wires (as shown at pic2)

Thank you.

Hi,

The solution is Boolean operation (General Fuse: https://www.opencascade.com/doc/occt-7.0.0/overview/html/occt_user_guide...) and then proper iterating your fused wires (e.g. with left-turn rule). Not sure if left turn is available in OpenCascade (there is something similar at BRepFeat_SplitShape and also in shape healing), but this is something you can develop from scratch.
