GetMeshDataAtIndex Method (IScanto3D)

Gets the points and facets in the specified mesh feature.

.NET Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function GetMeshDataAtIndex( _
   ByVal Index As System.Integer, _
   ByRef Points As System.Object, _
   ByRef Facets As System.Object _
) As System.Boolean
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As IScanto3D
Dim Index As System.Integer
Dim Points As System.Object
Dim Facets As System.Object
Dim value As System.Boolean
 
value = instance.GetMeshDataAtIndex(Index, Points, Facets)
C# 
System.bool GetMeshDataAtIndex( 
   System.int Index,
   out System.object Points,
   out System.object Facets
)
C++/CLI 
System.bool GetMeshDataAtIndex( 
&   System.int Index,
&   [Out] System.Object^ Points,
&   [Out] System.Object^ Facets
) 

Parameters

Index
Index of mesh feature for which to get data
Points
Array of x, y, and z coordinates of the mesh vertexes (see Remarks)
Facets
Array of facet triplets (see Remarks)

Return Value

True if successful, false if not

Example

See the IScanto3D examples.

Remarks

Before calling this method, call IScanto3D::GetMeshCount to obtain the total number of mesh features in this mesh.

Each facet in the mesh can be described by a triangle consisting of three mesh vertexes. Adjacent facets share their vertexes.

For example, if this method returns in Points a 0-based array of the coordinates of each vertex of a mesh feature specified by Index:

[

pt1x, pt1y, pt1z,

pt2x, t2y, pt2z,

pt3x, pt3y, pt3z,

pt4x, pt4y, pt4z,

pt5x, pt5y, pt5z,

pt6x, pt6y, pt6z

...

],

then it also returns in Facets an array of triplets of integers that are indexes into the array returned in Points:

[

{pt1x_idx, pt2_idx, pt3_idx},

{pt6_idx, pt4_idx, pt1_idx},

...

],

where the first facet is {0, 3, 6}, i.e.,  (pt1_idx = 0, pt2_idx = 3, pt3_idx = 6),

and the second facet is {15, 9, 0}, i.e.,  (pt6_idx = 15, pt4_idx = 9, pt1_idx = 0).
