Syntax

[Ft,Vt,Ct]=tri2rhombi(F,V,C);

Description

This function refines the surface region defined by the logic logicFaces, belonging to the surface given by the faces F and vertices V. The region is refined by: 1) taking the dual tesselation, 2) retriangulating the dual mesh to include the original points.

The input consists of: F: the faces V: the vertices logicFaces: A logic for the faces requiring refinement C: color data on either the faces or the vertices

The ouput can consist of: FT: Faces VT: Vertices C_type: Color/label for triangle type, i.e. original (1), refined (2), or boundary (3) indIni: Indices for original points C_new: New color data for faces or vertices

Examples
