Fuse bridge that connects hole in ngon

Hi,

As known Houdini makes hard tasks easy and easy tasks hard. :D

So at first sight really simple task, but I cannot find a way to overcome it. The bridge that connects hole in ngon looks like it is somehow outer edge of a polygon. Maybe there is a way to some how fuse it  or ignore such an inner edge during for example resampling?

That's very easy. 

This is because resample doesn't respect the way the vertices are wired for that bridge.

Just drop a Hole -> Un-bridge holes before resample

Do whatever you want after that,

Finally rebuild the hole with Hole SOP

If you need the geo for more than the outside look, you also need to make sure that the bridge has shared points, otherwise you're going to have internal faces.

Maybe try a fuse for that portion of the geometry,
