Purpose

The module ConnectEdges connects edges by creating a new edge between two given positions.

If necessary, new nodes are inserted at the nearest skeleton positions.

Usage

Note that after connecting edges by inserting a new edge, the changed output Graph of the GraphManager is only touched if the field Notify After Connect is checked.

Update: Trigger

Visible Fields

Update

name: update, type: Trigger

Notify After Connect

name: notifyAfterConnect, type: Bool, default: FALSE

If checked, the module will notify the GraphManager to update the output Graph.

Start Position

name: startPosition, type: Vector3, default: 0 0 0

Sets the starting position for the new edge in 3D; the new edge will connect to the nearest skeleton to this position.

End Position

name: endPosition, type: Vector3, default: 0 0 0

Sets the ending position for the new edge in 3D; the new edge will connect to the nearest skeleton to this position.

Connected Edge ID

name: connectedEdgeID, type: Integer, persistent: no

Shows the ID of the newly added edge for further processing.
