Detect star polygon...

[Gravedigger]

sorry i don't have much time at the moment. i can't look it up in the documentation. but i think this could be done by iterating through all faces and check the vertices. if there are 5-6 vertices you have your star polygons

thank's. With more research I just find out an way to do that. Just have to select vertex by vertex and use the 'ConvertSelectionToEdges' command.

ConvertSelectionToEdges;
string $numEdge[] = `ls -sl -fl`;
if (size($numEdge) > 5){
print "here we go ^^";
}


Close to what u explain, but I'm looking for star vertex, not poly's ;)

Thank's anyway.

Here's mine. Select all of the verts you want to run through first...


global proc filterVertsWithValence(int $lowerValence, int $higherValence)
{
polySelectConstraint -m 2 -or true -orb $lowerValence $higherValence;
resetPolySelectConstraint;
}

{
filterVertsWithValence(5, 5);

string $sel[] = `ls -sl`;
print ("Results are:\n");
print $sel;
print "\n";
}

I got errors and had to add the type for vertex to get it to work.....

polySelectConstraint -t 0x0001 -m 2 -or true -orb $lowerValence $higherValence;
