Yarns with variable cross section

[nbzuk0]

Dear Louise,

Is there a way in TexGen to obtain yarns with a variable cross-section for 3d woven textile, especially for the binder yarn? Please suggest both the GUI and Scripting methods in TexGen.

Hi Chaman,

The user guide describes how to assign cross sections in the GUI here: http://texgen.sourceforge.net/index.php ... s-Sections You can choose to either specify cross sections at the nodes or at specific points along the yarn.

How to set the cross sections using a script is described in section 5 of the scripting guide, available here: https://github.com/louisepb/TexGenScriptingGuide

Hope that helps,
Louise
