Work in progress.\ This will be a rust port of my scala based project toxicblend
Follow instructions in installasblender_addon.md
Requires #![feature(hash_drain_filter)] and #![feature(map_first_last)] i.e. rust +nightly
The blender addon is based on a client-server model using grpc.
The blender addon is the client and it only connects to localhost.
The server is local as well, run it with this command:
cargo +nightly run --bin server --release
Will convert a flat mesh object into an outline. Right now the data must be in a plane crossing origin (one axis need to be zero)
Takes the output of the 2d_outline command and calculates the 3D centerline.
This operation only works non-intersecting loops with islands of loops of edges inside. E.g. letters.
If you only need the 2D centerline, you can simply scale the added dimension to zero.
Keyboard command: s z 0 for setting Z to zero.
Works similarly to the built-in simplify command, but instead of a distance it takes a percentage. This percentage is applied to the largest dimension of the AABB and that value is used as the Ramer–Douglas–Peucker distance. Works on 3D linestrings/polylines.
Runs on a single flat mesh object and tests for self-intersections. If an intersection is found, the intersecting edges will be split at that point.
