SGof2CPLsz
by Tim C. Lueth, SG-Lib Toolbox: SolidGeometry 5.6 - SG/Solids
Introduced first in SolidGeometry 3.8, Creation date: 2017-04-24, Last change: 2025-09-14
returns a solid defined by 2 contours and height
Description
This function is the same as SGof2CPLz but supports more than one contour!
The optimal result depends on the expectations of the user. Consider different options for stype carefully:
"number" of points, i.e. 1:nmax
"length" of contour, i.e. 0:sum(edge length)
"angle" of contour, i.e. 0:sum(abs(edge angle))
"center" of contour, i.e. 0:360 degree
also the starting point ctype ('rot' or 'min');
Quite optimal procedure to find the walls between two planar contours without adding new points. The number of faces is na+nb.
The resulting vertex list SG:
SG.VL=[VLaddz(CPA,0);VLaddz(CPB,z)];
SG.FL=[FLA;FLB;FLW];
