    This code alone is a game changer in almost everything.

    Well, this looks like a kind of Pepakura (unfold)….but I still haven’t figured out how to apply it to any other Mesh. ( well here part of “weaverbird antiprims” (?) + a couple of points ‘(1-plane and 2-top point -solid)…..but what if one has a whole other Mesh?.
    — Sometimes, it gives all absorbed without separation, and without being able to really unroll the Mesh.
    Pepakura, if you have a very good resolution for unroll, all kinds of mesh.
    I thought this was similar- minimally to Ivy plugin ?.
    Help
    Cheers

      Hi Claudio,
      Unrolling mesh is one of the hottest topic in computer graphic. There isn’t any straight forward method to unroll any geometries with any tessellation. THEEVERYMANY is the one who has done similar practice, you can check out their project to see the method of unrolling.

      Many thanks
