pyblenderSDIC.meshes.TriangleMesh3D.triangle_centroids

property TriangleMesh3D.triangle_centroids: ndarray | None

Get the centroids of the triangles in the mesh.

The centroids are computed as the average position of the vertices of each triangle. The centroids are represented as a NumPy array of shape (M, 3), where M is the number of triangles.

See also

The method compute_triangle_centroids can be used to compute the centroids if they are not already computed.

Warning

This property uses numpy.asarray on the internal triangle_centroids array. As a result, any modification to the returned or setted array directly affects the mesh data. To avoid unintentional updates, assign a copy instead.

Returns:

A NumPy array of shape (M, 3) representing the centroids of the triangles in the mesh. If not computed, returns None.

Return type:

Optional[numpy.ndarray]
