However, if the marker turns black, it did not succeed and the problem persists. ![]() If you click on one of the markers, Meshmixer will try to fix the problem. Which is obviously a problem since we want to 3D print the model. And red markers show “non-manifold” geometry that cannot exist in real world. Magenta markers point at disconnected or very small parts of the model, these will simply be deleted. Different methods will work better with different models.
