kanzure"That said, is there a reason you aren't using something like ctypes and libwdb for this? If you're just doing compile-style generation of geometry, that's exactly what libwdb is for, and that'd keep you from needing to do anything with TCL or mged at all, and make it easier to add libged's functionality when it gets that far. Looking at ctypes, that should be close to trivial, and certainly easier than mucking about generating input for mged."12:42

kanzurehttp://designfiles.org/~bryan/csg.py any thoughts on how to do pythonic csg?17:11
kanzurekeep in mind that base and base_plate should both be modifiable down the road and have each other updated17:12
kanzurefenn: what about this method of converting meshes to solids? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZFLU1eUx6M it kind of sucks and seems to require human interaction17:26
kanzurebut i hadn't considered it17:26
kanzurehm it doesn't seem to capture the minor details like the holes17:26

fennthe geomagic surface reconstruction thing is pretty cool, but of course i have no idea how it works.. and there seems to be a lot of pointless interaction18:46
kanzurewhat they do is they take a surface and extrude it, transport it to the solids kernel, then fuse/cut in the solids kernel/proggie18:47
kanzureor that's what it looks like18:47
kanzureoops, wait18:47
kanzurethey take a surface, transport it over, extrude the surface, then fuse/cut it18:47
fennuh. so it's not dealing with meshes?18:48
kanzureit seems to..18:48
kanzurethey take a "layer" of the mesh to get a "surface"18:48
fennhow do they get the surface in the first place18:48
kanzurethey look at the mesh model i guess and take everything on a certain xyz plane18:48
kanzuredisclaimer: this is my pathetic guess18:48
kanzuremore python code from danielfalck http://pastebin.com/m375307bb18:49
QuantumGumm.. usually on a mesh you have some special vertices that are flagged as face edges.18:49
kanzureSTL?18:49
kanzurebkero: BUTT_PORBLEMS in portland says she's done the same thing. in about a week it will be fine18:50
QuantumGso if someone points at vertex and says "gimme that face" you can do a walk along the edges until you find all the verticies that are part of the face.18:50
bkerokanzure: <318:50
kanzurefenn: http://designfiles.org/~bryan/csg.py is this something you could live with18:53
kanzurei mean, if something worked like that18:53
fenni'm not too keen on having to extrude a circle to get a cylinder, but yeah i could live with that19:02
kanzureoh, well Cylinder would probably be a primitive19:02
kanzurei'm kinda dry on the "good examples" thing today19:02
