Mirror Cut Mesh
Cut a mesh with a plane, mirror the kept side of the cut across a mirror plane, and combine it with the kept side.
Inputs
| Name | ID | Description | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mesh | M | Mesh to mirror cut | Mesh |
| Mirror Plane | MP | Plane that the kept side of the mesh cut gets mirrored across | Plane |
| Reach | R | Parts of the mesh within this distance from the mirror plane will be additionally cut away | Number |
| Offset | O | Distance to offset the kept parts of the mesh 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 mesh | Boolean |
| Keep | K | Keep the mesh and mirror it normally if it is mirror cut into non-existence | Boolean |
| Connection Type | T | Determines how the mirror cut meshes are connected 0 = Split faces, with connection 1 = Remove faces, with connection 2 = Shrink faces, with connection 3 = Split faces, without connection 4 = Remove faces, without connection 5 = Shrink faces, without connection | Integer |
| Bulge | B | Bulge factor for the mirror cut mesh connections (-B = Negative Bulge, 0.0 = No Bulge, +B = Positive Bulge) | Number |
| Divisions | D | Number of mesh faces per side of the mesh connection | Integer |
| Weld Vertices | W | Weld mesh vertices that are within a specified proximity of eachother (0.0 = No weld, Number greater than 0 = Weld vertices within proximity of the number) | Number |
Outputs
| Name | ID | Description | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mirror Cut | M | Resulting mirror cut meshes | Mesh |
| Split Index | i | The splitting index (only if Join is false) To split the mirror cut mesh 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 mesh was intersected by the mirror cut, False if the mesh was not intersected by the mirror cut | Boolean |
