- 05:0305:03, 4 October 2020 diff hist +617 Surface GeomFillSurface →Twisting of the surface: Left: the boundary edges are oriented in the same direction, and thus the generated surface is smooth.

- 23:5523:55, 1 October 2020 diff hist +2,587 N LinkSub A LinkSub is a data structure that is used as input to various functions and objects; its purpose is to pass a subobject or subelement (vertex, edge, or face) from an object to another object that will use or transform that geometry.

- 23:4023:40, 1 October 2020 diff hist +237 LinkSubList It is important to recompute the objects before their subelements are used as input for other objects, otherwise an error may be produced as the geometry may not contain a valid Shape.
