Different converter results between gui and cli

[Daniel4144]

Hello,

There is a clear difference between converting models with the gui and the cli interface. From my observation, the cli results are a bit smaller (less polygons, smaller filesize), but sometimes have visual bugs that the gui version does not have.

My workflow for comparison:

• in gui: import stp and export glb -> first file
• save ini file from options to use same parameters with cli
• convert same file through cli with saved ini: -> second file

".\Mayo-0.9.0-win64-binaries\mayo-conv.exe" --use-settings "options.ini" "model.stp" --export "model.glb"

I would expect both files to be similar but the cli result is often noticably worse, which makes automation with a script not possible.

Any idea what could be wrong here?

I also noticed that when I switch meshing quality from "normal" to "very coarse" in the gui, the result is a bigger file. In the cli version, "very coarse" results in a considerably smaller file (but all quality settings have some visual bugs in the cli results).
