Split Surfaces on CAD Import

General Questions
1

Is there perhaps a way to stop PrePoMax from creating a split line on cylindrical surfaces which was not in the original CAD file ?

When PPM creates this split line, I can no longer allocate a transfinite mesh setting because the individual part now has 7 surfaces (and not the mandated 5 or 6).

I don’t think so, it’s a seam edge. FreeCAD always shows them too, other CAD software may hide them by default. You may need more partitions because of it. Or try to partition from the beginning in such a way that those edge are parts of the cut.
