Decisions to make

What is in scope?

For Polycam scan export, define the asset, destination, and release condition before editing. Keep a clean source copy and state why floating fragments is relevant to artifact repair.

What can block delivery?

For artifact repair in Polycam scan export, treat unresolved fused surfaces as blocking. Decide whether it needs a technical fix, additional evidence, or a qualified reviewer.

What proves it is ready?

For artifact repair, require a representative result in Polycam scan export, the accepted export settings, and a clear outcome for holes and intersections. Record who approved the final package.

Practical answer

The practical approach is straightforward: for Polycam scan export, begin with floating fragments, then test fused surfaces and holes and intersections in the actual destination. Keep the accepted export settings and any unresolved artifact repair risks with the source file.

Recommended workflow

Inspect the source asset

Open the original file before making changes. For Polycam scan export, record its format, units, dependencies, and current floating fragments so the artifact repair pass has a reliable baseline.

Check floating fragments

During artifact repair for Polycam scan export, establish the expected state of floating fragments. Resolve or document any gap before moving on to fused surfaces.

Test in Polycam scan export

Do not rely on the authoring viewport alone. For artifact repair, load a representative export in Polycam scan export and verify fused surfaces together with holes and intersections.

Package the result

For Polycam scan export, keep the accepted export, its settings, and a short note about unresolved risks. Name the person responsible for the final review of artifact repair.

Production notes

Polycam scan export is a starting point, not proof that an asset is production-ready. A artifact repair pass should distinguish generation artifacts from deliberate form before anyone spends time polishing the result.

For Polycam scan export, keep the artifact repair pass focused on floating fragments, fused surfaces, and holes and intersections. Make one controlled change at a time and retain enough evidence for another person to repeat the decision.

Separate intentional detail from floating fragments, fused parts, holes, duplicated surfaces, and texture projection errors. Apply this artifact repair guidance to the actual Polycam scan export delivery path.

Common failure modes

Unexpected change: floating fragments

During artifact repair, compare the source and destination values for floating fragments. Do not continue until the difference is explained and assigned to the asset or the Polycam scan export pipeline.

Destination mismatch: fused surfaces

For artifact repair, capture the Polycam scan export result and isolate the responsible layer. A clean authoring preview is not proof when the exported fused surfaces result no longer matches the baseline.

No pass condition for holes and intersections

Define an observable artifact repair result or move the decision to a qualified Polycam scan export reviewer. Do not hide an unresolved holes and intersections risk behind a general “ready” status.

Preflight checklist

  • Before artifact repair, confirm that Polycam scan export is the actual source cleanup destination, not just an intermediate preview tool.
  • For Polycam scan export, keep an untouched source file for artifact repair and record the starting state of floating fragments and fused surfaces.
  • Verify holes and intersections in Polycam scan export during artifact repair rather than assuming the editor preview is authoritative.
  • For Polycam scan export, save the approved export settings, fallback file, and owner of any remaining artifact repair work.

FAQ

How should I plan artifact repair for Polycam scan export?

For Polycam scan export, start with floating fragments on the untouched source file. It gives you a baseline before the artifact repair pass changes geometry, materials, metadata, or export settings.

What should the Polycam scan export artifact repair checklist include?

During artifact repair for Polycam scan export, record the source format, units, texture locations, material slots, exporter, destination version, and observed fused surfaces behavior.

Which floating fragments requirements matter most?

The artifact repair pass is complete when floating fragments, fused surfaces, and holes and intersections have been tested in Polycam scan export, the export opens correctly, and remaining review has an owner.

What happens when fused surfaces does not pass review in Polycam scan export?

For Polycam scan export, use a qualified reviewer during artifact repair when holes and intersections cannot be verified automatically or when licensing, device, marketplace, or domain rules affect approval.
