Make Faces Planar

Functionality

This node adjusts the positions of mesh vertices, trying to make all it’s faces planar (flat). Obviously, this makes sense only for meshes with Quad and/or NGon faces.

This node implements standard Blender’s function “Make Planar Faces”. Please refer to Blender documentation for more details.

Inputs

This node has the following inputs:

• Vertices. This input is mandatory.

• Edges.

• Faces. This input is mandatory.

• FaceMask. The mask for faces to be considered. By default, all faces are considered.

• Iterations. Number of times to repeat the operation. The default value is 1. This input can also be specified as a parameter. This input expects one value per input mesh.

• Factor. Distance to move the vertices each iteration. The default value is 0.5. This input can also be specified as a parameter. This input expects one value per input mesh.

Parameters

This node has no parameters.

Outputs

This node has the following outputs:

• Vertices.

• Edges.

• Faces.
