#include <CGAL/boost/graph/Seam_mesh.h>

Definition

This class is a data structure that takes a triangle mesh, further referred to as underlying mesh and turns some marked edges of that mesh into virtual boundary edges.

Note that a seam edge must be an edge of the underlying mesh that is not a border edge (that is, such that either halfedge or the edge have null_face() as incident face). Marking a border edge as seam will not do anything.

Is Model Of:
FaceGraph or FaceListGraph, depending on the underlying mesh TM.
Template Parameters
TMa model of FaceGraph or FaceListGraph
SEMa model of ReadablePropertyMap with boost::graph_traits<TM>::edge_descriptor as key type and bool as value type.
SVMa model of ReadablePropertyMap with boost::graph_traits<TM>::vertex_descriptor as key type and bool as value type.

◆ add_seam()

template<class TM , class SEM , class SVM >
bool CGAL::Seam_mesh< TM, SEM, SVM >::add_seam ( TM_vertex_descriptor  tm_vd_s,
TM_vertex_descriptor  tm_vd_t 
)

marks the edge of the underlying mesh that has extremities the vertices tm_vd_s and tm_vd_s as a seam edge.

Returns
whether the edge was successfully marked or not. Marking will fail if:
  • No edge of the underlying mesh exist with extremities tm_vd_s and tm_vd_s,
  • the edge of the underlying mesh with extremities tm_vd_s and tm_vd_s is a border edge, or
  • the edge of the underlying mesh with extremities tm_vd_s and tm_vd_s is already a seam edge.
