Class NMFace


The NMFace object

This object holds mesh face data.

Warning: Assigning uv textures to mesh faces in Blender works like this:

  1. Select your mesh.
  2. Enter face select mode (press f) and select at least some face(s).
  3. In the UV/Image Editor window, load / select an image.
  4. Play in both windows (better split the screen to see both at the same time) until the uv coordinates are where you want them. Hint: in the 3d window, the 'u' key opens a menu of default uv choices and the 'r' key lets you rotate the uv coords.
  5. Leave face select mode (press f).

Method Summary
  append(vertex)
Append a vertex to this face's vertex list.

Class Variable Summary
  col: The list of vertex colours.
  flag: Bit vector specifying selection flags (see NMesh.FaceFlags).
  image: The Image used as a texture for this face.
  mat: Same as materialIndex below.
  materialIndex: The index of this face's material in its NMesh materials list.
  mode: The display mode (see Mesh.FaceModes)
  normal: (or just no) The normal vector for this face: [x,y,z].
  smooth: If non-zero, the vertex normals are averaged to make this face look smooth.
  transp: Transparency mode bit vector (see NMesh.FaceTranspModes).
  uv: List of per-face UV coordinates: [(u0, v0), (u1, v1), ...].
list v: The list of face vertices (up to 4).
