Oliver David replied to Oliver David's discussion how to merge branches in a tree structure"Hi Michael, that doesn't really work as I am talking about one single tree where two or three different paths need to be merged.
You can see the data structure in the attached picture. In this example, branches {4}, {5} and {6} need to be…"
Michael Pryor replied to Oliver David's discussion how to merge branches in a tree structure"you can merge branches with entwine, also look at the merge component as well as weave."

Hi there,I am working on a mesh topology, where for each face some commands are being executed on its boundary depending on the angle to the adjecent faces.The outcome is a bunch of geometry neatly packed into one branch per face and that's exactly how I need them. Now the problem is, there are faces that actually belong together and should be handled as one single face, as they are coplanar and are only divided into multiple faces because the overall vertice count is more than 4 (see…See More

I’m also really interested in using the Planarity component with hexagons, did you get a chance to release an example of this? I can’t seem to work it out myself.
Cheers

By "non-convex" do you mean "concave"?
This is a link with some construction images and GT screenshots. I think that's where I figured…"

I'll try and get a release of this out in the next few days.
By the way, Daniel Davis recently shed some interesting light on that…"
taz replied to Oliver David's discussion Planarity in polygons with more than 4 vertices in the group Kangaroo"Hi Daniel,
Is this on the street yet?
I think with a dualized tri mesh it would be fun to planarize the hexes to model this...
Although from the looks of it there's still a bit of fishscaling going on. I believe the…"

Mårten Nettelbladt replied to Oliver David's discussion Planarity in polygons with more than 4 vertices in the group Kangaroo"Hi Oliver,
I believe this is also added in the next version:

Oliver David replied to Oliver David's discussion Planarity in polygons with more than 4 vertices in the group Kangaroo"Awesome! Thanks Daniel!
Another idea: What about being able to set the bending restrain to a specific angle?
Cheers,
Oliver"
Daniel Piker replied to Oliver David's discussion Planarity in polygons with more than 4 vertices in the group Kangaroo"Hi Oliver,
I've just recently added planarization for polygons of any number of edges, and it is working nicely.
I will post the public release soon."

Planarity in polygons with more than 4 vertices
Hi there, I'm currently trying to make a relaxation process for plate structures (polygons), using different kinds of forces. But one important thing is keeping all polygons planar, no matter how many vertices they have. For hexagons, I tried using three planarity components, which worked but looks kind of ugly. I also know that in maya I once saw pentagons, which automatically stayed planar by applying springs between opposing vertices, maybe that's another method.See More
