On the left is a triangulated mesh done with the standart triangulation component. On the right is a triangulation, which I have done manually. Any way or existing plug-in which can do this? [triangulation]

OK! I was trying it out and yes, the curves as a guide do the trick pretty well. I will play with some random shapes and see what I can get. I inflate the mesh later on, so I should not have flat faces at the corners and also this way the curvature of the entire shape is way better at the end.

Damn this is trippy as hell :smiley:

Look at it when you use the guide curves the way I needed. Pretty neat thing :slight_smile: [equ] triangulate_direction_relax_v2.gh (12.6 KB)

Look at that curvature analysis. Look at that symmetry. [1] [2]

Nice! I added another little script for if you want to use an irregular boundary curve - it trims off any faces outside the curve, and also any ‘hanging’ triangles with 2 boundary edges: triangulate_withincurve_pressure.gh (14.9 KB) [image]

God dammit Daniel, this is pure beauty!!!

@DanielPiker Hi , do you think this approach can work also with multiple curves? I have a mesh generated trimming a surface with a series of closed curves and then Mesh Brep. When I thicken and smooth the final result is bad, since the topology is not regular ( see below). [topology] I tried o…

I updated this to work with nested curves :slightly_smiling_face: triangulate_withincurve_pressure_multicurve.gh (14.7 KB) [image]
