Functionality#

The node is coded to perform the transformation of one or many vertices according to the relation of two triangles

Eaxh triangle is defined by three vectors.

Inputs / Parameters#

Param

Type

Description

Vertices

Vertices

Points to calculate

Edg_Pol

Int Lists

Edges or pols of the input Vertices (optional)

Verts Tri Source

Vertices

It will get the first and last vertices’s to define the line segment

Verts Tri Target

Float

Minimal distance to accept one point is intersecting.

Advanced Parameters#

In the N-Panel (and on the right-click menu) you can find:

Implementation: Choose between MathUtils (Faster transforming light meshes) and NumPy (Faster transforming heavy meshes)

Output NumPy: to get NumPy arrays in stead of regular lists (makes the node faster). Only in the NumPy implementation.

Match List: Define how list with different lengths should be matched. Refers to the matching of groups (one tris couple per group)

Outputs#

Vertices: Transformed vectors.

Edg_Pol: A matched copy of the input Edg_Pol data.

Example of usage#

The node can be used to place geometry over triangular faces.

The List Match option can offer different output combinations, in this case Cyclic is used

Custom triangular Tessellation in this case Cyclic is used to alternate between the input geometry
