material_offset

Offset material index of generated faces

Type: int in [-32768, 32767], default 0

material_offset_rim

Offset material index of generated rim faces

Type: int in [-32768, 32767], default 0

nonmanifold_boundary_mode

Selects the boundary adjustment algorithm

NONE None – No shape correction.
ROUND Round – Round open perimeter shape.
FLAT Flat – Flat open perimeter shape.

Type: enum in [‘NONE’, ‘ROUND’, ‘FLAT’], default ‘NONE’

nonmanifold_merge_threshold

Distance within which degenerated geometry is merged

Type: float in [0, 1], default 0.0001

nonmanifold_thickness_mode

Selects the used thickness algorithm

FIXED Fixed – Most basic thickness calculation.
EVEN Even – Even thickness calculation which takes the angle between faces into account.
CONSTRAINTS Constraints – Thickness calculation using constraints, most advanced.

Type: enum in [‘FIXED’, ‘EVEN’, ‘CONSTRAINTS’], default ‘CONSTRAINTS’

offset

Offset the thickness from the center

Type: float in [-inf, inf], default -1.0

rim_vertex_group

Vertex group that the generated rim geometry will be weighted to

Type: string, default “”, (never None)

shell_vertex_group

Vertex group that the generated shell geometry will be weighted to

Type: string, default “”, (never None)

solidify_mode

Selects the used algorithm

EXTRUDE Simple – Output a solidified version of a mesh by simple extrusion.
NON_MANIFOLD Complex – Output a manifold mesh even if the base mesh is non-manifold, where edges have 3 or more connecting faces. This method is slower.

Type: enum in [‘EXTRUDE’, ‘NON_MANIFOLD’], default ‘EXTRUDE’

thickness

Thickness of the shell

Type: float in [-inf, inf], default 0.01

use_even_offset

Maintain thickness by adjusting for sharp corners (slow, disable when not needed)

Type: boolean, default False

use_flat_faces

Make faces use the minimal vertex weight assigned to their vertices(ensures new faces remain parallel to their original ones, slow, disable when not needed)

Type: boolean, default False

use_flip_normals

Invert the face direction

Type: boolean, default False

use_quality_normals

Calculate normals which result in more even thickness (slow, disable when not needed)

Type: boolean, default False

vertex_group

Vertex group name

Type: string, default “”, (never None)

Returns: The RNA type or default when not found.
Return type: bpy.types.Struct subclass

classmethod bl_rna_get_subclass_py(id, default=None)

Parameters: id (string) – The RNA type identifier.
Returns: The class or default when not found.
Return type: type
