Below example text output of Open Studio Sketchup Plug-In File Errors and Warnings. I have multiple of these errors after performing surface matching and intersecting of surfaces. I have visually inspected the base surfaces to be sound. What is happening?
Error: Sub Surface 395
This sub surface's base surface 'Surface 399' has less than 3 points, it cannot be drawn.
Error: Sub Surface 883
This sub surface's base surface 'Surface 2438' has less than 3 points, it cannot be drawn.
Error: Sub Surface 138
This sub surface's base surface 'Surface 1943' has less than 3 points, it cannot be drawn.

I see that the vertices for the Surface are approaching but not quite 0. I unfortunately do not have a file from before the matching with all of the information.
