Interface ProjectNodesToCadGeometryBuilder

All Superinterfaces:

Builder, IComponentBuilder, Remote, TaggedObject

public interface ProjectNodesToCadGeometryBuilder
extends Builder

Allows you to query the mesh nodes that are off the underlying Cad geometry by a given tolerance, and if requested this builder can adjust the node locations to put them back on to the underlying Cad geometry.
To create a new instance of this class, use MeshManager.createProjectNodesToCadGeometryBuilder()
