List of properties available to filter by for selecting parts of the current buildroom
Jump to:
- By bounding box
- By volume
- By quality
- By number of triangles
- By Z height
- By placement relative to buildroom volume
By bounding box
| Bounding box is larger than, Bounding box is smaller than |
Direction of threshold to decide inclusion versus exclusion |
|
| X, Y, Z |
Threshold lengths along the cardinal axes |
|
| in all directions, in at least one direction |
Choose whether all thresholds must be met or only at least one of them. |
|
| Ignore orientation |
Netfabb tests for all combinations of values given for X, Y, and Z |
Only tests a part's current bounding box dimensions. Even if a part could be rotated to make its bounding box pass when it currently doesn't, it would still not be considered to have passed the threshold check. |
By volume
Parts can be selected by their volume being larger or smaller than a given value.
| Volume is larger than, Volume is smaller than |
Direction of threshold to decide inclusion versus exclusion |
|
| (numerical input) |
Threshold volume |
cm³ or in³, depending on choice in the
|
SettingsBy quality
| valid | closed and correctly oriented | |
| faulty | not closed or not correctly oriented | |
| closed | no open triangle edges, no holes | |
| open | any open edge | |
| oriented | no two consecutive triangles have opposing normals across their common edge | |
| non-oriented | At least one triangle has a direct neighbor with an opposing surface normal. | |
| more than one shell | Parts with more than one group of triangles within which the triangles are connected by common edges but where there is no connection across an edge between such groups | Must have a common edge. A common node is insufficient. |
| exactly one shell | Any triangle can be reached from any other triangle by traversing from one to another across a common edge. | |
| without triangles | A part record that somehow came to exist but does itself not contain any triangles |
By number of triangles
| More than, Less than |
Direction of threshold to decide inclusion versus exclusion |
|
| (numerical input) |
Threshold count |
By Z height
| Parts are fully above, Parts are partly above, Parts are fully below, Parts are partly below above |
Direction of threshold to decide inclusion versus exclusion |
|
| (numerical input) |
Threshold height with respect to the platform |
Only this value is tested against, even when the parts lie outside the actual buildroom volume. |
By placement relative to buildroom volume
| Parts fully inside the platform, Parts fully ouside the platform, Parts fully and partly inside the platform, Parts fully and partly outside the platform |
Direction of threshold to decide inclusion versus exclusion |
The "and" refers to parts of either disposition, rather than to parts that are of both dispositions at the same time which is impossible. |
