The GetOppositeFaceConnectedToEdge method retrieves the face that is opposite to a given face and connected through a specified half-edge in a polygon mesh. This is useful for navigating the mesh structure, especially when working with complex geometries where understanding the relationship between faces is crucial.
To use this method, you need to have a HalfEdgeMesh.HalfEdgeHandle representing the edge and a HalfEdgeMesh.FaceHandle representing the face from which you want to find the opposite face. The method will return a HalfEdgeMesh.FaceHandle that represents the opposite face connected to the specified edge.
// Assume 'mesh' is an instance of PolygonMesh
HalfEdgeMesh.HalfEdgeHandle edgeHandle = ...; // Obtain a half-edge handle
HalfEdgeMesh.FaceHandle faceHandle = ...; // Obtain a face handle
HalfEdgeMesh.FaceHandle oppositeFace = mesh.GetOppositeFaceConnectedToEdge(edgeHandle, faceHandle);
if (oppositeFace != null)
{
// Do something with the opposite face
}
