SGremedgepoints

by Tim C. Lueth, SG-Lib Toolbox: SolidGeometry 5.6 - Surfaces
Introduced first in SolidGeometry 5.3, Creation date: 2023-06-10, Last change: 2025-09-15

returns a surface model without edge points on straigt lines, but with surface points that are inside

Description

This function is useful, if STEP files are converted into STL files, and some boundary edges cannot be fused since, there are unnecessary auxilariy points along straigth lines

Syntax

[SGN,FLN,FSi]=SGremedgepoints(SG,[alpha,minf,"repair"])

Input Parameter

SG: Solid Geometry surface model
alpha: alpha angle for feature surface; default is 0.01
minf: minimum facets per face; default is 5; smalles value
"repair": if used, the function SGrepairFLsimple is called in the end

Output Parameter

SGN: New surface model with reduced vertices and faces
FLN: Reduced Facet list based on the original vertex list
FSi: Feature surface index list

Examples

Remove surfpoints on the line:
A=SGlinkage(5,30,5)
model=pdemodelofSG(A,1)
SGofpdemodel(model); B=ans
SGremedgepoints(B)
SGmakedoublevertex(SGbox('noframe'),1,.76,0.01,'auxc',1,'auxg',2.3); SG=ans
SGremedgepoints(SG);
