Re: [Visualpython-users] Mesh questions

[Bruce S. <Bru...@nc...>]

I guess you're referring to a routine in the example program 
faces_heightfield.py. That's not a class that's part of Visual, it's 
just something that the author of that program (David Scherer) wrote for 
the particular purposes of that example. It doesn't do any of the things 
expected of Visual objects, nor is there any documentation of it. Feel 
free to take it and do whatever you want with it.
