Hello,

I am trying to generate a volume mesh with uniform element size from a segmentation using Cleaver in the Segment Mesher module, however the output mesh does not seem to have uniform element sizes:

Slicer version: 4.11.20210226

I have set the following parameters,  
Feature scaling: 0.60  
Sampling Rate: 1.00  
Rate of change of element size: 1.00

Thank you in advance.

I think you need to set element size rate of change to 0 if you don’t want to change the element size.
