Wrapping works one way

Hello,

I have two meshes, Pranay and Generic. I want to wrap Generic mesh to Pranay mesh.

Node config 1:
Floating geom: Generic.obj
Fixed geom: Pranay.obj

The compute button on the wrapping node is disabled.

Node config 2:
Floating geom: Pranay.obj
Fixed geom: Generic.obj

The compute button works

Why does config 1 fail?

here is a link to download the sample files.

thanks

I know we need to align the two meshes first and need to give point correspondences but to keep the test simple i have only used Wrap and repair node.

thanks

Hey,

If you hold the middle mouse button over a wrapping node, it will show an error message saying that the basemesh topology is non-manifold.

If you pass the basemesh to the RepairGeom node, it will highlight the problematic edges.

It this case there’s a bad polygon at the eye corner. I deleted the polygon from the mesh, aligned the meshes and added free polygons mask and now wrapping works ok.

Please find the edited mesh here:

Hello Andrew,

Thanks the fix works. I did use the repair node, i thought the node will fix the geometry.

However i have a follow up question. i would like to use wrapX to do the warping. When i start wrapX from command line the software opens too. Is there anyway i can hide software?

thanks
