Hi Andrei,

That's not quite correct - you don't have to select every single edge of the surface, just all the edges of one boundary. So in your case there it's enough to select only all the edges of the outer boundary and leave all the other boundaries that are making internal holes (where you have fillets and such connected in that case) to be left alone.

If you have 2 pieces that both come from the same original surface, you can do Boolean Union instead of Join, boolean union will remove connecting edges between 2 coplanar planes and also between pieces that have the exact same underlying surface.

If I understand you correctly, it already works as you are asking - for example here I can select just the outside boundary and then hit delete and it only removes that particular boundary:
So you don't have to do every single edge, you can do just one boundary if you want. But on boundaries that have multiple edges you do have to have all of the edges of the boundary selected, and on things that touch a seam edge that includes the seam edge as well.
Maybe you were thinking you had to select all because in some previous message I'd mentioned a quick way to do an untrim was to select one edge and then do Ctrl+A to select all edges - but that was for some case where there was only one outer boundary for that particular surface being used, if you want to only remove one boundary then you don't need to do select all.

Right now it's not really possible to script that. Are those surfaces in your example joined to each other or not joined?

That's something I mentioned previously:

Are you using window selections for your cases where it's not working? If so that's the problem - it's currently easy for the auto sorter to end up with a virtual "tie" between a planar profile and a point that is also on that same plane.
I have it on my list to fix this for the next beta, but for now the solution is to not use window select for these cases, you instead need to individually click the profiles in the proper order (with the point objects selected first/last) and that should then work.
