Select or click in the area beneath the File node to place a PolyReduce node.Ī new node named polyreduce1 appears in the Geometry pane near the imported geometry node. Select Polygon > PolyReduce, and then press Enter to select the PolyReduce node.

In the Geometry pane on the lower right, press the Tab key to open the TAB Menu. The example images below show the difference between a high-quality model used for scenes of low complexity on Microsoft HoloLens, and a low-quality model used for scenes of high complexity. This reduces visual fidelity, but increases performance. Decimation is the process of recomputing the surface polygons of the model to create a similar shape with fewer polygons. To reach application-specific goals, you might need to 'decimate' your 3D models. In the pop-up window, browse to the file you want to import, select it, and then select Accept. Select the Open floating file chooser button, and then choose the file you want to import. On the TAB Menu, select Import, and then select File to place a File node in the Geometry pane.ĭouble-click the file1 icon (or press I) to drill down to the file selection part of this node. Right-click in the lower-right window pane to open the TAB Menu (or select the Tab key).
