Mesh healing

Post by Dejan2013 »

Hello
Is there a way to do some mesh healing tasks? I particularly need to remove T-shape joints. They are generated by a triangle collapsed into straight line. I see the IModelHealer_KC but it has only one unrelated method
Thanks in advance
Dejan

Hi Dejan
We have integrated MeshLab http://meshlab.sourceforge.net/ a while ago. There is lots of mesh handling functionality including healing tasks like hole filling, smoothing, validation etc. Unfortunately only small part, demonstrated in the Cloud sample is exposed to developers.

The reason is that mesh healing is very varied and often application-specific activity. It is also little outside of our priorities. So we have left it to be implemented on demand as custom features. We ask people to contribute part of the costs. It is pretty quick to expose a specific functionality, so it is cheap.

Regards
Nick
