Triangulate Node

The Triangulate node converts all faces in a mesh (quads and n-gons) to triangular faces. It functions the same as the Triangulate tool in Edit Mode.

Inputs

Mesh: Standard geometry input.
Selection: A standard Boolean selection input to determine which faces will be triangulated.
Minimum Vertices: Minimum number of vertices a face must have to be triangulated. For example, setting this value to 5, will prevent triangulation of Quads and only triangulate N-gons.

특성

Quad Method

Beauty: Split the quads in nice triangles, slower method.
Fixed: Split the quads on their 1st and 3rd vertices.
Fixed Alternate: Split the quads on their 2nd and 4th vertices.
Shortest Diagonal: Split the quads along their shortest diagonal.
Longest Diagonal: Split the quads along their longest diagonal. This is the preferred mode for cloth simulations.

N-gon Method

Beauty: Arrange the new triangles nicely, slower method.
Clip: Split n-gons using an ear-clipping algorithm (gives similar results to the tessellation used for the viewport rendering).

Outputs

Mesh: Standard geometry output.
