chrono::ChVisualShapeTriangleMesh Class Reference

Description

Class for referencing a triangle mesh shape that can be visualized in some way.

A ChVisualShapeTriangleMesh can be attached to a physics object. Provides various rendering options (e.g., drawing as wireframe, performing backface culling, etc.) which may not be supported by a particular visualization system.

◆ SetMesh()

void chrono::ChVisualShapeTriangleMesh::SetMesh ( std::shared_ptr< ChTriangleMeshConnected mesh,
bool  load_materials = true 
)

Associate the mesh asset with a triangle mesh geometry.

Optionally, if load_materials is set to true and if the provided trimesh was loaded from a Wavefront OBJ file, associated material files are searched for and visualization materials loaded.
