TRIPRODUCE

Use this to create a triangulation model from existing contour data.


Usage:

triproduce <database.dgd> <output_triangulation> <layer_data>... <layer_spur strings> {Y|N} <max_length_edge_tris>

<> indicates a mandatory switch.
[ ] indicates an optional switch


Where:

Option

Description

<database.dgd>

Refers to the name of the design database that is to be used.

<output_triangulation>

Refers to the name of the resulting triangulation.

<layer_data>...

Refers to the name of the layers that contain the contour data. The TRIPRODUCE program supports the use of multiple layers, therefore a blank string (represented by double quotes) needs to be used after the last layer as been entered.

<layer_spur strings>

Refers to the name of the layer that will be used to store the generate spur strings.

{Y|N}

Indicates whether or not enclosed flat areas are to be left flat.

<max_length_edge_tris>

Refers to the maximum length of edge triangles. Triangles that exceed the specified value will be excluded from the resulting triangulation. Enter '-1' if you don't want to restrict the size of triangles around the edge of a triangulation.


Example:

triproduce mydata.dgd output.00t MYLAYER1 MYLAYER2 "" SPURS Y -1
