About this Block

What it does: The Mesh Face from Points block creates a mesh face from a list of points. Common uses:
  • Creating support structures
  • Creating Graphs from Mesh Faces
Tips
  • The list of points can only contain 3 or 4 points.
  • When dragging a point list into the Points field, the auto-populated point list must be deleted first.
