**************************
|
|
Uniting a set of triangles
|
|
**************************
|
|
|
|
It is possible to unite many neighboring triangles into
|
|
quadrangles by deletion of the common edge.
|
|
|
|
*To union several triangles:*
|
|
|
|
.. |img| image:: ../images/image80.png
|
|
|
|
#. Select a mesh (and display it in the 3D Viewer if you are going to pick elements by mouse).
|
|
#. In the **Modification** menu select the **Union of triangles** item or click *"Union of triangles"* button |img| in the tool-bar.
|
|
|
|
The following dialog box will appear:
|
|
|
|
.. image:: ../images/a-unionoftriangles.png
|
|
:align: center
|
|
|
|
|
|
* **The main list** shall contain the triangles which will be united. You can click on a triangle in the 3D viewer and it will be highlighted. After that click the **Add** button and the ID of this triangle will be added to the list. To remove a selected element or elements from the list click the **Remove** button. The **Sort** button allows to sort the list of IDs. The **Filter** button allows to apply a definite :ref:`filter <filtering_elements>` to selection of triangles.
|
|
* **Apply to all** radio button allows to apply the operation to all triangles of the selected mesh.
|
|
* **Preview** provides a preview in the viewer.
|
|
* **Criterion** menu allows to choose a quality criterion, which will be optimized to select triangles to unite.
|
|
* **Select from** set of fields allows to choose a sub-mesh or an existing group whose triangle elements then can be added to the list.
|
|
|
|
#. Click the **Apply** or **Apply and Close** button to confirm the operation.
|
|
|
|
If some selected triangle elements have no adjacent edges with one of
|
|
the others, the operation on these elements shall take no effect.
