FSofSGnormal
by Tim C. Lueth, SG-Lib Toolbox: SolidGeometry 5.6 - FS/Feature Surfaces
Introduced first in SolidGeometry 5.1, Creation date: 2021-07-14, Last change: 2025-09-15
finds all feature surfaces that fullfil the same normal vector condition
Description
There are several functions for the selection of surfaces, features, and frames
FSofSGnormal - uses a normal vector for the selection
FSselect - should simply select surfaces out of a larger set of surfaces
FSfeature - should return properties of different data types
see also all SGTset functions
=======================================================================
The 1st of a set of functions aimed directly at the analysis and formal specification of surfaces. This is necessary to give a clear structure to the formal addressing of surfaces

Syntax
[FILk,FILm,FILi]=FSofSGnormal(TR,[nv,alp,rec])
Input Parameter
TR: | | Triangulation or SG |
nv: | | normal vector; default is [0 0 1] |
alp: | | alpha angle; default is 0.01 |
rec: | | if false, alpha is also the absolut limit to the nv vector; default is true; |
Output Parameter
FILk: | | Cell list of facets that belong to the same feature surface |
FILm: | | Cell list of facets that belong to the same feature surface but are most similar to nv |
FILi: | | Cell list of one facet per surface that is most similar to nv |
