This tool is used to split a given mesh into multiple meshes using several different techniques.
The feature can be found under Utilities > Mesh Tools > Mesh Splitter.
The image below shows the complete feature layout of the Mesh Splitter tool.
Splitting Method | |
Triangle | Checks for continuity in triangle connections: all groups of connected triangles become individual meshes. Used to split a mesh that consists of separated objects
|
Vertex Distance | Checks for the distance between vertices. Splitting occurs when the distance surpasses a given value
|
Octree Vertex | Uses an Octree collider as an initial check for mesh continuity, and finishes with the Triangle method. Improved efficiency when dealing with multiple separated objects in the same mesh
|
Material | Checks each triangle on a mesh for material: All triangles with the same material are considered as a single mesh
|
