MeshCreateQuickHull3D Method (PointCloud, ListInt32)

Attempts to create a 3d convex hull mesh from an input point cloud using the QuickHull algorithm, also returning the input points that make up each hull face.

Namespace: Rhino.Geometry
Assembly: RhinoCommon (in RhinoCommon.dll)

Since: 9.0

Syntax

Copy

public static Mesh CreateQuickHull3D(
	PointCloud pointCloud,
	out List<int[]> indexMap
)

Public Shared Function CreateQuickHull3D ( 
	pointCloud As PointCloud,
	<OutAttribute> ByRef indexMap As List(Of Integer())
) As Mesh

Parameters

pointCloud: Type: Rhino.GeometryPointCloud
The point cloud to be covered with the convex hull. At least four points are required, and they must not be coincident, colinear, or coplanar.
indexMap: Type: System.Collections.GenericListInt32
List of integer arrays, one for each hull face, containing the indices into the point cloud that make up that face. Note, this can be null.

Return Value

Type: Mesh
A valid mesh if successful. If there were too few input points, or the input was degenerate (coincident, colinear, or coplanar), the result is null.
