Tessellate Solid Options MinExternalAngleBetweenTriangles

$

Hello,

I am currently working on the parameters to control meshing of solids in the Revit API. The Method TessellateSolidOrShell(solid, tessellationControls) seems to do a good job. But after a lot of research and trying different parameter settings i still dont get what the parameter minExternalAngleBetweenTriangles exactly means.

I have the following questions:

1. Which angle is meant? In a mesh in 3D there are several options for an external angle between two adjacent triangles.

2. Is it really the minimum you are setting? When I set a higher value the mesh gets coarser, which looks like it is a maximum not a minimum.

3. the range of values is 0 to 30000 feet. for an angle that doesnt seem to make sense. is that really the range of values for the parameter?

 

I would greatly appreciate any help!

Thanks,

Hanna
