Repairing objects and projects

Sometimes imported objects or objects generated in form•Z maybe less than perfect (missing faces, non-planar faces, redundant edges, ect.), because of these imperfections they may not qualify for certain "stilt" operations, such as Booleans and exporting for 3D printing or rapid prototyping. form•Z includes a few Doctor tools that will make a best effort to first diagnose and then repair these imperfections, to the extent possible.
