Creates polygon meshes from NURBS surfaces or polysurfaces.
Steps:
Main2 > Mesh from Surface/Polysurface Mesh > Mesh from Surface/Polysurface Mesh > From NURBS Object |
Creates a mesh from curves and points.
Steps:
Select points and curves.
Select a closed inner boundary curve or press Enter to create a mesh with no holes.
Closed curves used as the inner boundary are treated as holes.
Select a closed outer boundary curve or press Enter.
Options
AngleTolerance
Used to make polyline approximations of curves. If only polylines are selected, this setting has no effect on the final output.
StartingSurface
Use a reference surface that is similar in shape to the mesh you are trying to create. The surface will influence the mesh shape.
The hyphenated version adds command line options:
MainSegmentCount
Sets the number of divisions per side of the given surface or best fit plane with which to create an outer boundary.
TrimBack
If Yes, will not create the faces that have a vertex in common with the created outer boundary.
Mesh > Mesh Patch None |
Copies the render mesh to create a separate mesh object.
Steps:
Shade the viewport.
Select surfaces or polysurfaces for mesh extraction.
Render > Extract Render Mesh (Right click) None |
Creates a planar mesh from a set of closed curves.
Steps:
Select a closed planar curve or several curves that enclose a planar area.
Mesh > Mesh from Planar Curves (Right click) None |
Creates a polygon mesh of triangles whose boundary matches the input polyline.
Steps:
Select a closed polyline.
Mesh > Mesh from Closed Polyline Mesh > From Closed Polyline |
Creates a polygon mesh from point objects.
Steps:
Select point objects.
Options
SamplingDensityPlusNoise
The spacing between adjacent points in the point cloud. The default value is an approximation calculated by taking the square root of the quotient of the area of the bounding box divided by the number of points.
AutoAdjustGrid
Yes
Automatically adjusts the NumOfContouringGridCells and SamplingDensityPlusNoise when it is set to Yes.
No
NumOfContouringGridCells and SamplingDensityPlusNoise can be set independently of each other.
NumOfContouringGridCells
The size of the marching cube.
The default value is the inverse of SamplingDensityPlusNoise.
