meshes_join

compas.datastructures.meshes_join(meshes, cls=None)[source]

Join meshes without welding.

Parameters:
mesheslist[compas.datastructures.Mesh]

A list of meshes.

clsType[compas.datastructures.Mesh], optional

The type of the joined mesh. This defaults to the type of the first mesh in the list.

Returns:
compas.datastructures.Mesh

The joined mesh.

Examples

>>> from compas.datastructures import Mesh
>>> from compas.datastructures import meshes_join
>>> vertices_1 = [[0, 0, 0], [0, 500, 0], [500, 500, 0], [500, 0, 0]]
>>> vertices_2 = [[500, 0, 0], [500, 500, 0], [1000, 500, 0], [1000, 0, 0]]
>>> faces = [[0, 1, 2, 3]]
>>> mesh_1 = Mesh.from_vertices_and_faces(vertices_1, faces)
>>> mesh_2 = Mesh.from_vertices_and_faces(vertices_2, faces)
>>> mesh = meshes_join([mesh_1, mesh_2])
>>> mesh.number_of_vertices()
8
>>> mesh.number_of_faces()
2
