Cross sections - BiMMate - 04-17-2024
Is there a way to make a cross section of the scene in SharpEngine?
RE: Cross sections - abenedik - 04-22-2024
If creating a "cross section" means slicing a 3D model by a plane, then the v1.0 has the Ab4d.SharpEngine.Utilities.MeshUtils.SliceMesh method that can slice the mesh with a plane into two meshes.
It was not yet possible to simply slice any SceneNode. To show how to do that, I have created a new SliceModelsSample that also contains the missing methods to slice any SceneNode object.
The source for the new sample is here:
https://github.com/ab4d/Ab4d.SharpEngine.Samples/blob/main/Ab4d.SharpEngine.Samples.Common/AdvancedModels/SliceModelsSample.cs
The methods from the ModelUtils class from this file will be added to the Ab4d.SharpEngine v1.1 versions, so this sample will be simpler.
