two questions about 3d mesh

Post by chabong »

hello.

i have two questions about 3d mesh.
honestly, i'm not sure there are these functions in cloudcompare.

1) how can i give colors to the other side of 3d mesh?
ex)https://ibb.co/gwV9D4r

2) how can i make a line to edge of clipped 3d mesh?
ex)https://ibb.co/S7v2Hqy

if you know those, please tell me how to do.
thanks you! :-)

Hi,

1) Sadly it's not possible with CloudCompare...

2) You could try with the 'Cross section' tool: https://www.cloudcompare.org/doc/wiki/i ... ss_Section

Make a think slice close to the border, and then extract the contour (see https://www.cloudcompare.org/doc/wiki/i ... le_contour).

Another option is to do it manually with the 'Trace polyline' tool, but that's not ideal.
