Generate Point Grid
Last updated
Last updated
Genrate a mesh with corresponding test points from a Rhino Brep (or Mesh).
The resulting mesh will be in a format that the "LB Spatial Heatmap" component will accept.
geometry [Required]
Brep or Mesh from which to generate the points and grid.
grid_size [Required]
Number for the size of the test grid.
offset_dist
Number for the distance to move points from the surfaces of the input _geometry. Typically, this should be a small positive number to ensure points are not blocked by the mesh. (Default: 0).
quad_only
Boolean to note whether meshing should be done using Rhino's defaults (False), which fills the entire _geometry to the edges with both quad and tringulated faces, or a mesh with only quad faces should be generated. FOR ADVANCED USERS: This input can also be a vector object that will be used to set the orientation of the quad-only grid. Note that, if a vector is input here that is not aligned with the plane of the input _geometry, an error will be raised.
points
Test points at the center of each mesh face.
vectors
Vectors for the normal direction at each of the points.
face_areas
Area of each mesh face.
mesh
Analysis mesh that can be passed to the "LB Spatial Heatmap" component.
