I have a problem with a python script for generating an object consisting of two parts combined with the union modifier.
This is a stripped down part of the code:
import bpy
import math
import mathutils
from mathutils import Vector, Matrix

verts = [
Vector((0.0, 1.6738300323486328, 0.0)),

faces = ((0,1,2,3), (7,6,5,4), (1,0,4,5), (3,2,6,7), (0,3,7,4), (2,1,5,6))
origin = Vector((0, 0.0000, 2.0))
# Delete all
bpy.ops.object.select_all(action = 'SELECT')
bpy.ops.object.delete()
for item in bpy.data.objects:
bpy.data.objects.remove(item)
for item in bpy.data.meshes:
bpy.data.meshes.remove(item)
# Create mesh and object
name = 'klotz'
me = bpy.data.meshes.new(name+'Mesh')
obj = bpy.data.objects.new(name, me)
obj.location = origin
obj.show_name = True
# Link object to scene and make active
scn = bpy.context.scene
scn.objects.link(obj)
scn.objects.active = obj
obj.select = True
# Create mesh from given verts, faces.
me.from_pydata(verts, [], faces)
# Update mesh with new data
me.update()
bpy.context.scene.update()
# Rotate local object coordinate system
rot_mat = mathutils.Matrix(
((0.0000, 1.0000, 0.0000, 0.0000),
(1.0000, 0.0000, 0.0000, 0.0000),
(0.0000, 0.0000, -1.0000, 0.0000),
(0.0000, 0.0000, 0.0000, 1.0000)))
# Rotate object vertices in opposite direction
me = obj.data
me.transform(rot_mat.inverted())
bpy.context.scene.update()
# Update object matrix applying rotation
obj.matrix_world *= rot_mat
bpy.context.scene.update()
nasen_w = 0.5
nasen_d = 0.6
nasen_h = 0.3 ## <== sensitiv to nasen_h
nasen_pos = Vector((0.5579, 0.2000, 0.15))
bpy.ops.mesh.primitive_cube_add(location=nasen_pos)
nase = bpy.context.active_object
nase.scale = (nasen_w/2,nasen_d/2,nasen_h/2)
bpy.ops.object.transform_apply(location=True, rotation=True, scale=True)
bpy.context.scene.update()
nase.matrix_world = obj.matrix_world.normalized()
# union of klotz and nase
if 0:
modifier = obj.modifiers.new('Modifier', 'BOOLEAN')
modifier.object = nase
modifier.operation = 'UNION'
bpy.context.scene.objects.active = obj
bpy.ops.object.modifier_apply(apply_as='DATA', modifier=modifier.name)
bpy.context.scene.update()
scene = bpy.context.scene
scene.objects.unlink(nase)
As shown, the script generates two object, a flat truncated pyramid and small box.
When I try to combine these two object with an union modifier by replacing the
if 0:
in the last code block in line 79 with an
if 1:
the truncated pyramid vanishes, leaving a small piece, which looks like the difference of the two objects, not the union.
Also I get error messages:
group 0x7f145b12ecd0 is unclassified!
group 0x7f145b12ebf0 is unclassified!
group 0x7f145b12ecd0 is unclassified!
group 0x7f145b12ebf0 is unclassified!
This error is sensitive to the height of the box. If this height is equal to the height of the pyramid (the upper and lower faces are then coplanar to the upper and lower faces of the pyramid) the error occurs, if I change the height a little bit, in line 68 for example:
nasen_h = 0.3 ## <== sensitiv to nasen_h
to
nasen_h = 0.2999 ## <== sensitiv to nasen_h
the error vanishes. The error is also dependent of the coordinate transformations (rot_mat) and the postion (origin) of the object.
I tried this with blender version 2.76 and 2.68a. I also checked the normals of the two objects, they seem to be ok. Has anyone an idea, what I'm missing?
Many thanks!
