TessellationOptionsKit &SetLevel(Tessellation::Chord::Limit in_limit_type, double in_limit, double in_angle_tolerance)

Sets the user defined quality of the tessellation that will be generated for BRep data. This implicitly sets A3DRWParamsTessellationData::m_eTessellationLevel to kA3DTessLODUserDefined.

Parameters
  • in_limit_type – The type of the chord limit to be specified.

  • in_limit – Either the ratio of the tessellation chord height to the bounding box height which should be in the range [50, 10000], or the maximum distance between the surface definition and the tessellation approximation, depending on the preceding argument.

  • in_angle_tolerance – The maximum angle in degrees between two consecutive wire elements in the generated tessellation which should be in the range [10, 40]. This corresponds to the value that will be passed to A3DRWParamsTessellationData::m_dAngleToleranceDeg.

Returns

A reference to this TessellationOptionsKit.

TessellationOptionsKit &SetLevel(Tessellation::Level in_level)

Sets the predefined quality of the tessellation that will be generated for BRep data. This corresponds to the value that will be passed to A3DRWParamsTessellationData::m_eTessellationLevelOfDetail.

Parameters

in_level – The predefined quality of the tessellation that will be generated for BRep data.

Returns

A reference to this TessellationOptionsKit.

TessellationOptionsKit &SetMaximumEdgeLength(double in_length)

Sets the maximum length of triangle edges in the tessellation generated for BRep data. This corresponds to the value that will be passed to A3DRWParamsTessellationData::m_dMaximalTriangleEdgeLength.

Parameters

in_length – The maximum length of triangle edges in the tessellation generated for BRep data. The value must be non-negative, and if set to 0.0, the length will not be used when generating the tessellation.

Returns

A reference to this TessellationOptionsKit.

TessellationOptionsKit &SetUVPointPreservation(bool in_state)

Sets whether to keep parametric points as texture coordinates when generating the tessellation for BRep data. This corresponds to the value that will be passed to A3DRWParamsTessellationData::m_bKeepUVPoints.

Parameters

in_state – Whether to keep parametric points as texture coordinates when generating the tessellation for BRep data.

Returns

A reference to this TessellationOptionsKit.

void Show(TessellationOptionsKit &out_kit) const

Copies this TessellationOptionsKit into the given TessellationOptionsKit.

Parameters

out_kit – The TessellationOptionsKit to populate with the contents of this TessellationOptionsKit.

bool ShowAccuracy(Tessellation::Accuracy &out_type, bool &out_accurate_normals, bool &out_accurate_surface_curvatures, double &out_accurate_grid_maximum_stitch_length) const

Shows the accuracy setting.

Parameters
  • out_type – The type of the accuracy which was specified.

  • out_accurate_normals – Whether to compute surface normals when performing accurate tessellation. This only applies if out_type is different than Tessellation::Accuracy::Standard.

  • out_accurate_surface_curvatures – Whether to take into account surfaces curvature in accurate tessellation to controle triangles elongation directions. This only applies if out_type is different than Tessellation::Accuracy::Standard.

  • out_accurate_grid_maximum_stitch_length – Maximal grid stitch length. Disabled if value is 0. Be careful, a too small value can generate a huge tessellation. This only applies if out_type is Tessellation::Accuracy::GridAccurate.

Returns

true if an accuracy setting was specified, false otherwise.

bool ShowLevel(Tessellation::Type &out_type, Tessellation::Level &out_level, Tessellation::Chord::Limit &out_limit_type, double &out_limit, double &out_angle_tolerance) const

Parameters
  • out_type – The type of the level setting which was specified.

  • out_level – The predefined quality of the tessellation that will be generated for BRep data. This is only valid if out_type is Tessellation::Type::Standard.

  • out_limit_type – The type of chord limit which was specified. This is only valid if out_type is Tessellation::Type::Custom.

  • out_limit – The chord limit to use to generate tessellation for BRep data. Its interpretation depends on the preceding argument. This is only valid if out_type is Tessellation::Type::Custom.

  • out_angle_tolerance – The maximum angle in degrees between two consecutive wire elements in the generated tessellation. This is only valid if out_type is Tessellation::Type::Custom.

Returns

true if a level setting was specified, false otherwise.

bool ShowMaximumEdgeLength(double &out_length) const

Public Static Functions

static TessellationOptionsKit GetDefault()

Creates an TessellationOptionsKit which contains the default settings. The returned object will not necessarily have values set for every option, but it will have settings for those options where it is reasonable to have a default. These values will be used for import unless an option is overridden by the options passed to File::Tessellation.

Returns

An TessellationOptionsKit with the default settings.
