class RemeshingSettings

Remeshing settings for the RemeshingProcessor class.

Properties

PropertyDescription
ForceSoftEdgesWithinTextureChartsIf the flag is set, the normal calculation will only allow hard edges along texture borders. Any vertex normal within a texture chart (not along the border) will be forced soft. Caveat: If this is enabled, some normals might be highly interpolated, and deviate substantially from the triangle normal.
GeometricalAccuracySet the relative geometrical accuracy of the output mesh. A value less than 1 will lower the accuracy, and lower the output triangle count, but might introduce intersections in the output geometry. A value above 1 will introduce more triangles, and will be able to capture the input geometry more accurately in the output.
HardEdgeAngleThe normal hard angle cutoff in degrees.
HoleFillingHoleFilling defines how aggressively the remesher will fill holes and cavities. What this does is to measure the volume and hole opening sizes of concavities in the input geometry and fill them in in the remeshing if the concavity is large enough with a small enough opening. This removes a lot of unnecessary geometry and is recommended to be kept at it's default rather than turning it off, it will in the vast majority of cases have a positive effect on the result.
KeepUnprocessedSceneMeshesIf false, the processor will remove all geometry and scene nodes which was not selected for processing from the scene. If true, only the geometry in the ProcessSelectionSet will be replaced or updated. If old nodes are kept and a new geometry is added to the scene, it will always be the last child of the scene root. If generating a mappingimage to cast materials, new materialIds will also be appended to the end of the old material table instead of replacing the old ones.
NameThe name of the RemeshingSettings object. (Inherited from Object)
OnScreenSizeThe on-screen rendering size of the geometry. Allowed values are in the range 20 to 10000 pixels.
PopulateAttributeTessellationDisplacementIf set, the AttributeTessellation geometry fields on the output mesh, as defined by the AttributeTessellationSettings on the RemeshingProcessor, will be populated with the sub-vertices actual displacement to the original input mesh. This displacement can then be applied to the geometry as a post process, or it can be exported along with the base mesh as micromesh data.
ProcessSelectionSetIDSelects which SelectionSet should be processed. If set to -1, all geometries in the scene will be processed.
ProcessSelectionSetNameSelects which selection set should be processed. If the selection set is not found, all geometries in the scene will be processed. If both selection set name and ID are set, the name will be used.
RemeshingModeThe remeshing mode, options are Outside, Inside and Manual. RemeshingMode defines if the remeshing processor remeshes the outside or the inside of the input geometry. Manual needs the user to define a position in space that will be considered as outside for the purposes of the remeshing. Position is set with RemeshingModeManualPosition. Hole filling only works with the mode Outside.
RemeshingModeManualPositionXX component was a 3-tuple real that acts as the marker designating remeshing processors starting position
RemeshingModeManualPositionYY component was a 3-tuple real that acts as the marker designating remeshing processors starting position
RemeshingModeManualPositionZZ component was a 3-tuple real that acts as the marker designating remeshing processors starting position
SurfaceTransferModeThe surface transfer mode.
TopologicalAccuracySet the topological accuracy of the output mesh. 1=default accuracy, 0=minimal topological accuracy. Lowering the accuracy will lower the memory requirements, and increase remeshing performance, at the cost of lower topological accuracy, where the remesher fills in larger gaps or holes.
TransferColorsIf set, vertex color channels will be sampled from the original mesh.
TransferNormalsIf set, the vertex normals channel will be sampled from the original mesh.

Caveat: If this is enabled, some normals might be highly interpolated, and deviate substantially from the triangle normal.
