Lateral extents from distance in vein system

Options

Hello,

Does anyone know if there is any way to apply diferent latteral extent from distance to diferent veins at vein system?

I can only apply it to the whole boundary.


Thanks.

    For each individual vein, use the distance function create shells around the input segments for each vein.

    Extract mesh parts for each individual vein.

    Use mesh operations to clip each individual vein by the distance function for that vein and select to retain the inside.

    Merge the clipped veins using the Boolean function in meshes.

    It's a bit of work to set up if you've got a lot of veins but in my opinion is better than going through and manually editing the boundary of each vein.

    Thanks Shaun,


    The bad thing about it is when you add new data you´ll need to do it every time, right?


    It might be a good idea to implement it in future versions.

    Rather than extracting mesh parts you can clip the 'live' vein by the distance function to produce a clipped mesh version of the vein. This way when you update the vein, everything else will update as well. The only set up required is when you create a new vein.

    Its a good idea, thanks.

    We only have a problem about it, veins are related to a regional model, so we needed to recreated from scratch =(.
