Description

A params element stores the parameters used in an enumeration of vertex normal surfaces. Typically these parameters are supplied by the user when a new normal surface list is created.

Children

Element params has no children.

Attributes

embedded

Either T if only embedded normal surfaces are enumerated, or F if all (embedded, immersed and singular) normal surfaces are enumerated.

flavour

The flavour of coordinate system used in the normal surface enumeration, expressed as a human-readable string. Example flavours are Quad normal and Standard almost normal (tri-quad-oct).

flavourid

The flavour of coordinate system used in the normal surface numeration, expressed as an internal identification code. This will be a non-negative integer.
