faces.tris.to.quad: Convert tris faces to quad faces by simple merging.

Description Usage Arguments Value Note

View source: R/read_fs_surface.R

Description

This is experimental. Note that it can only work if the number of 'tris_faces' is even, as two consecutive tris-faces will be merged into one quad face. We could set the index to NA in that case, but I do not know how FreeSurfer handles this, so we do not guess.

Usage

1
faces.tris.to.quad(tris_faces)

Arguments

tris_faces

*nx3* integer matrix, the indices of the vertices making up the *n* tris faces.

Value

n/2x4 integer matrix, the indices of the vertices making up the *n* quad faces.

Note

This function does not implement proper remeshing of tri-meshes to quad-meshes. Use a proper mesh library if you need that.
