This is generally a smooth process with a robust input and output of suitable data. Then waits for the process to complete, reads in the resultant file, and steps back through some basic functions to the point where the tool was started. The interaction between the InStep and MeshLab applications is one whereby the existing data is exported to a temporary folder and thenĮither a batch process or set of command line arguments are passed to the MeshLabServer.exe application (provided by MeshLab). This is where InStep and MeshLab can work together as they focus on different parts of the process. With that mindset, correcting issues along the way should be kept as simple as possible (but no simpler) and help in achieving the goal of a successful How certain items work are not always of interest, rather a goal has been set and the application should be able to reach that goal. The InStepĪpplication is intended to be used for the conversion of mesh data to a boundary representation (STEP files specifically).
#MESHLAB WRITTEN IN SOFTWARE#
Quite often (always?), software applications are merely a tool on the belt, intended to be used for a purpose and then forgotten. Quite often the 'just tell me which button to press' attitude creeps up, especially when project deadlines are approaching.įor this reason, it is (hopefully) nice to be able to use it without having to learn the finer details of its operation. While learning to use MeshLab is a worthy undertaking, it is not always easy to take the time to read the tutorials and watch the videos. MeshLab (and InStep similarly) is no exception. As with any software application, there are a few items to keep in mind:Īny application will have some learning curve and mastering even simple applications can take some time. Ganovelli, G.MeshLab is a very powerful application that can and should be used as a standalone application when working with mesh type files List if current issues - MeshLab Issue Tracker.MeshLab Home page - Win, MacOS and Linux.
Script is optional and must be in the xml format saved by MeshLab. The format of the output mesh is guessed by the used extension.
There can be multiple meshes loaded and the order they are listed matters because filters that use meshes as parameters choose the mesh based on the order.
