NAME

rtcGetGeometryFirstHalfEdge - returns the first half edge of a face

    

SYNOPSIS

#include <embree3/rtcore.h>
unsigned int rtcGetGeometryFirstHalfEdge(
  RTCGeometry geometry,
  unsigned int faceID
);

    

DESCRIPTION

This function can only be used for subdivision geometries. As all topologies of a subdivision geometry share the same face buffer the function does not depend on the topology ID.

Here f0 to f7 are 8 quadrilateral faces with 4 vertices each. The edges e0 to e23 of these faces are shown with their orientation. For each face the ID of the edges corresponds to the slots the face occupies in the index array of the geometry. E.g. as the indices of face f1 start at location 4 of the index array, the first edge is edge e4, the next edge e5, etc.
