+Models with a 180-degree or greater bend angles can often create a very small negative straight distance value. We've added this feature to allow you to detect and fix this situation automatically by injecting a value of zero where there are negative straights.<br><br>

+Pressing YES will change the shape of the part.  However, if the negative straight is very small, then changing the shape will have no significance and will create a part that is close enough to the nominal to still be a good shape for use as MASTER data.<br><br>
 <br><br>

+This feature also allows you to skip the fix by pressing "NO." If you do this, then you can still manually adjust the radii to smaller values after the rebuild. Of course, if you skip this fix, then VTube may have trouble generating the diameter - and may even generate and display a program error that you can usually bypass.<br><br>
