Mirror Cut Surface
Cut a surface with a plane, mirror the kept side of the cut across a mirror plane, and combine it with the kept side (for trimmed surfaces use Mirror Cut Polysurface).
Inputs
| Name | ID | Description | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Surface | S | Surface to mirror cut | Surface |
| Mirror Plane | MP | Plane that the kept side of the surface cut gets mirrored across | Plane |
| Reach | R | Parts of the surface within this distance from the mirror plane will be additionally cut away | Number |
| Offset | O | Distance to offset the kept parts of the surface from the mirror plane (or offset from the reach if reach in not zero) | Number |
| Flip | F | Flip the mirror direction | Boolean |
| Join | J | Join the mirror cut surfaces | Boolean |
| Keep | K | Keep the surface and mirror it normally if it is mirror cut into non-existence | Boolean |
| Connection Type | T | Determines how the mirror cut surfaces are connected 0 = Linear 1 = Tangency 2 = Curvature 3 = None | Integer |
| Bulge | B | Bulge factor for the mirror cut surface connections (-B = Negative Bulge, 0.0 = No Bulge, +B = Positive Bulge) | Number |
Outputs
| Name | ID | Description | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mirror Cut | M | Resulting mirror cut surfaces | Brep |
| Split Index | i | The splitting index (only if Join is false) To split the mirror cut surface set at the mirror use this as the index input on Grasshopper's Split List component. | Integer |
| Reach Plane | RP | The plane at the reach distance | Plane |
| Offset Plane | OP | The plane at the offset distance | Plane |
| Intersected | I | True if the surface was intersected by the mirror cut, False if the surface was not intersected by the mirror cut | Boolean |
