Target Faces tool settings panel
Target Faces lets you set a custom polygon count for the repaired output. Reducing polygons makes smaller files that slice faster, while keeping the original count preserves maximum detail.

​
When to use this

  • When your model has millions of polygons and you want a lighter file
  • When your slicer struggles with high-polygon models
  • When you want a specific polygon count for your workflow

​
Settings

​
Use original faces

Toggle. Default: On — keeps the original polygon count.

​
Target count

When toggled off, enter a custom number (3–5,000,000).

Tips

  • 100,000–500,000 faces is plenty of detail for most prints
  • Reducing below 50,000 may lose visible fine features like facial details
  • Higher polygon counts produce smoother surfaces but larger files
  • Check the current count with the Object Info tool
