Methods

Connect(ProBuilderMesh, IEnumerable<Edge>)

Inserts new edges in order to connect a set of edges. If a face contains more than two edges to connect, this method inserts a new vertex at the center of the face and connects each edge to the center point.

This is the equivalent of the Connect Edges action.

Declaration
public static SimpleTuple<Face[], Edge[]> Connect(this ProBuilderMesh mesh, IEnumerable<Edge> edges)
Parameters
Type Name Description
ProBuilderMesh mesh

The target mesh.
IEnumerable<Edge> edges

A list of edges to connect.
Returns
Type Description
SimpleTuple<Face[], Edge[]>

The faces and edges created as a result of inserting new edges.

Connect(ProBuilderMesh, IEnumerable<Face>)

Inserts new edges on a face starting from the center of each edge to a new vertex in the center of the face.

This is the equivalent of the Connect Edges action.

Declaration
public static Face[] Connect(this ProBuilderMesh mesh, IEnumerable<Face> faces)
Parameters
Type Name Description
ProBuilderMesh mesh

Target mesh.
IEnumerable<Face> faces

The faces to affect.
Returns
Type Description
Face[]

The faces created as a result of inserting new edges.

Connect(ProBuilderMesh, IList<Int32>)

Inserts edges connecting a list of indices.

This is the equivalent of the Connect Edges action.

Declaration
public static int[] Connect(this ProBuilderMesh mesh, IList<int> indexes)
Parameters
Type Name Description
ProBuilderMesh mesh

The target mesh.
IList<Int32> indexes

A list of indices (corresponding to the positions array) to connect to the new edges.
Returns
Type Description
Int32[]

A new array containing the indices of the newly connected positions. This method rebuilds the indexes array because it might modify the ordering of the original array.
