Measure
v1.3.0Tools
Summary
The Measure operator computes geometric properties on geometry including density, surface variation, mean curvature, curvedness, and gradient values. Results are output as point attributes for use in downstream operations.
Parameters
Group
GroupIf there are input groups, specifying a group name in this field will cause this POPX to act only upon the group specified.
Measure
MeasureThe type of geometric measurement to compute.
Density
densitySurface VariationsurfacevarMean CurvaturemeancurvCurvednesscurvednessGradientgradientScalar Attribute
ScalarattrThe scalar attribute to compute gradient from when Measure is set to Gradient.
Use Existing Neighbors Attributes
UsenebrsattrWhen enabled, uses pre-computed neighbor attributes instead of computing them.
Neighbors Type
NebrtypeMethod for finding neighboring points.
By Distance

MaxdistanceMaximum distance to search for neighboring points.
Distribution
DistributionMethod for distributing neighbor point selection.
Default

NumhashbucketsNumber of hash buckets for spatial acceleration structure.
Max Neighbors
MaxneighborsMaximum number of neighbors to consider for each point.
Smoothing Radius
SmoothingradiusRadius used for smoothing the measured values.
Output Measure Attribute
OutputmeasureattrName of the output attribute to store the measured values.
Output Neighbors Attributes
OutputneighborsattrsWhen enabled, outputs neighbor attributes for reuse by subsequent Measure operators.
Preview Measure
PreviewmeasureWhen enabled, visualizes the measured values using a color ramp.
Measure Ramp
MeasurerampColor ramp preset used for visualizing measured values when Preview Measure is enabled.
