Description
This tool converts a selected Mesh object into a Shape object. Note that this tool is optimized for objects with flat faces (no curves). The corresponding tool from the Part Workbench might be more suited for objects that contain curved surfaces.
Usage
- Select a mesh object.
- Press the Mesh to Shape entry in Arch → Utilities → Mesh to Shape.
Properties
Limitations
Scripting
See also: Arch API and FreeCAD Scripting Basics.
This tool can be used in macros and from the Python console by using the following function:
new_obj = meshToShape(obj, mark=True, fast=True, tol=0.001, flat=False, cut=True)
- Turns the given
obj
, a mesh, into a shape, joining coplanar facets. - If
mark
isTrue
, non-solid objects will be marked in red. - If
fast
isTrue
it uses a faster algorithm by building a shell from the facets then removing splitter. tol
is the tolerance used when converting mesh segments to wires.- If
flat
isTrue
it will force the wires to be perfectly planar, to be sure they can be turned into faces, but this might leave gaps in the final shell. - If
cut
isTrue
holes in faces are made by subtraction.
