Point Cloud Mesh

Mesh > 2D Mesh > Point Cloud Mesh

Dialog Box

This option is used to generate a surface tri mesh from a set of points. The set of points has to be imported as a point body using File > Import > Discrete Models > Point Cloud

This does not guarantee a closed non intersecting mesh.

Maximum mesh size

Maximum mesh size defines the maximum element length that could be used to connect nearby points. Using this we could control unnecessary connection of points that are very far.

Minimum distance between points

Minimum distance between points is used to get rid of points that are very close to each other. It is also used to remove duplicate points, i.e., more than one points in the same location.
