Hi PaQ,

It certainly looks like it's doing something like that. It seems like it has a tendency to get a kind of diagonal skew effect in the last connections approaching a trim edge. It kind of feels like hair that won't comb out straight. Like it's got split ends.

MoI's mesher generates N-gons natively as part of the meshing process. If you want triangles it still generates n-gons initially internally and then the n-gons are triangulated.

The other thing that drives this is using all quads with edge flow structure for sub-d modeling.

They get used to hearing over and over that they need to use all quads for their sub-d models and then that gets extended to everything needs to be all quads no matter what is being done.
