Shapefile Template for OSSmooth

Hello,

 

I would like to generate my own shapefiles to be used with OSSmooth to create new topologies. Is there any information on how the file is constructed? I understand that the beginning of the file has element ids with their associated relative densities but there are many other fields whose contents are unknown to me.

 

Thank you in advance,

-Eric

    Hi Eric,

     

    I couldn't find much information on generating a .sh file apart from elements, densities and move limits.

    Thanks for your help. It turns out that only the element densities are required for OSSmooth and the other information can be omitted.

    If it is topology results, I think yes.
