Example code for the id ID_REMESH_POLYGONTYPE in Oremesh

Note that this is not the actual code from the Oremesh file.

This code is just an example to show you how to add a similar control to your own description.

Resource File Code (Oremesh.res)


LONG  ID_REMESH_POLYGONTYPE
{
                        
    CYCLE 
    {         ID_REMESH_POLYGONTYPE_QUADRANGLES; 
        ID_REMESH_POLYGONTYPE_TRIANGLES; 
    }
}
            

Header File Code (Oremesh.h)

#ifndef OREMESH_H__

    ID_REMESH_POLYGONTYPE_QUADRANGLES = 1,
    ID_REMESH_POLYGONTYPE_TRIANGLES = 2,
};
#endif	// OREMESH_H__
