# Blender.Geometry module and its subtypes """ The Blender.Geometry submodule. Geometry ======== This new module provides access to a geometry function. """ def PolyFill(polylines): """ Takes a list of polylines and calculates triangles that would fill in the polylines. Multiple lines can be used to make holes inside a polyline, or fill in 2 seperate lines at once. @type polylines: List of lists containing vectors, each representing a closed polyline. @rtype: list @return: a list if tuples each a tuple of 3 ints representing a triangle indexing the points given. @note: 2D Vectors will have an assumed Z axis of zero, 4D Vectors W axis is ignored. @note: The order of points in a polyline effect the direction returned triangles face, reverse the order of a polyline to flip the normal of returned faces.
