Utilizing Custom Visualization Quality for Implicit Modeling
Implicit modeling refers to geometry that is represented using implicit functions, which can be thought of as a 3D grid using scalar values. This feature was first introduced to Altair Inspire in release 2023. To extract implicit models in an STL or 3MF format, the use of converting to mesh is necessary. Versions 2023…
