Bender/Documentation/1.1/Modules/SkinModelMaker

Introduction

The Skin Model Maker module extracts the outer surface of a volume (labelmap or grayscale). It conveniently wraps the modules Change Label, Grayscale Model Maker and Model Quadric Clustering Decimation. In order to ensure the surface lies within the volume, the skin can be peeled off (changed into background) before extracting the surface. In order to reduce the number of points and cells of the extracted surface model, an additional decimation is possible using Quadric Clustering.

Parameters

Input/Outputs Volume: Select the input labelmap volume to extract the skin from Output skin model: model holding the extracted skin from the volume Parameters Background label: Value of the "air" label. It is usually 0. Skin label: Value of the "skin" label. If there is more than 1 label, separate them with ", " Decimate output skin: If checked, the skin model is decimated via Quadric Clustering with a spacing defined by 'Spacing' Spacing: Spacing to use for the Quadric Clustering if decimation is enabled.
