Greetings,
i´ve allready searched and looked for a solution but could´nt find any.
I have a plain surface and some curves, and i want to translate them to a triangular mesh where the curves (green) are part of the edges from the mesh. In the picture its only projected onto the mesh but not part of it.
I already tried searching for the closest point in the mesh and replacing them by the controlpoints from the polylines this results in an irregular mesh.
Is there a way to make it a (more) regular mesh without loosing the geoemtrical accuracy to the curves?
I also tried the “Features” Feature () from TriRemesh to preserve the curves but it doesnt work. I guess because they were´nt part of the mesh in the first place?
Hello
it is not really clear what you want. The result is the curve or the mesh ?
To project a polyline on a triangular face is possible.
First extrude the polyline to make a ribbon, then use The Mesh Mesh intersection component.
Obviously far more elaborated takes on that matter are possible (and rather required). For instance getting more Pts to fix (on a proportional to their avegage/min Length basis) etc etc. And/or mastermind more/other inputs to the MM solver.
Sorry - What happened to the usual Lord flair/imagery/branding we’re accustomed to see in your definitions that are unmistakably yours? I don’t even want to download it nor learn from it this way. Are you feeling alright?
@ZTrick
I tried looking into it briefly as well however I’m also unclear as to what you want given the screenshots you present.
What do you mean by “irregular mesh”? That the mesh doesn’t have symmetry? Or that you don’t like it?
I ask because your screenshot using tri-remesh shows the result with vertices dictated by your curves, which certainly achieves what your original questions seems to hint at?
Tri-Remesh seems pretty ‘regular’ to me (whatever that means) in that it looks symmetrical but it for sure isn’t:
Can’t you just use/remesh one corner then mirror-transform-rotate it or whatever then join and weld and all that so it’s ‘regular’ as in symmetrical + using your splitting curves?
First of all, thank you all for the fast response to my question.
I´ve seen great suggestions, some of them i can even use for later steps but they are not helping me with my problem. Anyways the blame for that goes on me not expressing myself clear, sorry for that.
I have a mesh which i project curves on (so far so good), then i want to remesh the whole thing with two goals: Primary Objective: the mesh has faceedges which are identical to the projectet curve. Secondary Objective: the mesh has evenly distributed all more or less the same size triangles.
As you can see the problem is in image 2 near the green curves (technically they are green edges of the mesh), or even worse in image 4.
They have to be more or less uniform because I am using the mesh for an FE analysis and the curves are supposed to be bearings.
I hope that helps and you all have a wonderful weekend!
