Get (PolygonMesh) *

Description

Return a complete data description of polygon mesh.

Note: This method uses output arguments. C# and some scripting languages (such as JScript and PerlScript) don't support arguments passed by reference. However, there is a alternate version of this method which is considered safe to use with C#, JScript and PerlScript: PolygonMesh.Get2.

Scripting Syntax

    PolygonMesh.Get( [Vertices], [PolygonData] )

C# Syntax

    PolygonMesh.Get( Object& out_vertices, Object& out_polygonData );

Parameters

Parameter | Type | Description
Vertices [out] | Array | Array representing the polygon vertices. The array is a 2D array (Nx3) of x,y,z values.
PolygonData [out] | Array | An ordered array of polygon definitions, each polygon is defined by a list of elements, the first element of a polygon definition must be set with the number of indices for that polygon. The ordering of vertices must respect a ccw ordering to get out going normals (right-hand rule). E.g. array of polygons with 4 indices each e.g. {4,0,1,4,3,4,1,2,5,4... }

Examples

VBScript Example

    set oCube = Application.ActiveProject.ActiveScene.Root.AddGeometry("Cube","MeshSurface")
    oCube.ActivePrimitive.Geometry.Get aVertices, aPolygonData
    set oNewCube = Application.ActiveProject.ActiveScene.Root.AddPolygonMesh (aVertices, aPolygonData)
