Design Importer
The Design importer includes the following format-specific settings.
Tessellation Setup
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Deviation | Maximum deviation value used for anisotropic space (perspective view). This affects the curves resolution of wires. [default: 0.8] |
| Max. Grid Lines | Maximum number of grid lines to import. [default: 10000] |
| Max. Edge Length | Maximum facet edge length. [default: 0] |
| Normal Tolerance | Tessellation quality of circular surfaces (such as a cone, torus, sphere or cylinder). This is measured in degrees. It determines the number of mesh cells (triangles) used to represent a circular surface. The number of mesh cells will be 360 / Normal Tolerance. So, with a tolerance of 15, a surface will be tessellated with 24 mesh cells (360 / 15). [default: 15] |
| Surface Tolerance | Distance tolerance for coincident faces. [default: 0] |
| Grid Aspect Ratio | Aspect ratio of the grid. [default: 0] |
| Distance Between Knots | The number of additional points between knots. For NURBS surfaces, there will be additional isolines between knots. [default: 2] |
| Points Per Edge | The number of points per edge. 0 = disabled. [default: 0] |
| Fast Mode | Tessellate the import faster, but at the risk of generating more errors. [default: false] |
