Fill Holes

This effect will triangulate holes (loops of boundary edges), which can be handy for fixing imperfect meshes like 3D scans. This effect only makes sense for an approximately closed mesh; otherwise the results may be unexpected (eg. if you give it a plane, it would try to connect the boundaries).

Input

polygonal mesh (should be approximately closed)

Output

polygonal mesh

VTK classes

vtkFillHolesFilter

Options

Maximum hole size

Only fill holes that fit inside a sphere of given radius.
