Description
The Mesh VertexCurvature command creates Mesh Curvature objects for mesh objects. A curvature object displays the curvature of a mesh using different colors for the convex, flat and concave parts.
Example of a Mesh Curvature object
Usage
- Select one or more mesh objects.
- There are several ways to invoke the command:
- Press the Mesh VertexCurvature button.
- Select the Meshes → Curvature plot option from the menu.
- Select the Curvature plot option from the Tree view context menu or 3D view context menu.
Properties
For a Mesh Curvature object the following properties are available in the Property editor. Select the Show all option from the Property editor context menu to display the hidden properties.
Data
Base
- DataLabel (
String
): a user editable name for the object, an arbitrary UTF8 string. - DataSource (
Link
): a link to the mesh object.
Base
- DataCurv Info (
CurvatureList
): a list of curvature information. - DataExpression Engine (
ExpressionEngine
): a list of expressions. - DataLabel2 (
String
): a user editable description for the object, an arbitrary UTF8 string that may include newlines. - DataVisibility (
Bool
): if set totrue
, the object appears in the 3D view.
View
Base
- ViewDisplay Mode (

Bool
): if set totrue
, the object appears in the Tree view. - ViewVisibility (
Bool
): if set totrue
, the object appears in the 3D view.
Base
- ViewTexture Material (
Material
): an App Material associated with the object.
