VMTKMESHBRANCHCLIPPER(1)

💖 VMTKMESHBRANCHCLIPPER 💖

okay bestie, welcome to vmtkmeshbranchclipper, a vmtk script (manual section 1, user commands, she's that girl) ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

vmtkmeshbranchclipper — it's a vmtk script, and it's literally called vmtkmeshbranchclipper. iconic naming, no notes 👑

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So here's the vibe: vmtkmeshbranchclipper does automatic piping and option parsing, which is giving very much "just works, bestie" energy. 🫶

And here's what she actually does, fr fr:

vmtkmeshbranchclipper : interactively clip a mesh based on proximity to a split and grouped centerline 🦋

Lowkey obsessed with that. Okay, now the part you actually came for.

🎀 Input arguments

• -id Id (str,1); default=0 — script id. it's her little name tag 💅
• -handle Self (self,1) — handle to self. yes she has a handle, she's holding herself together (relatable) 🫶
• -disabled Disabled (bool,1); default=0 — disable execution and piping. flip this and she's on strike 💀
• -i Mesh (vtkUnstructuredGrid,1) — the input mesh, as a vtkUnstructuredGrid
• -ifile MeshInputFileName (str,1) — filename for the default Mesh reader 📂
• -centerlines Centerlines (vtkPolyData,1) — the input centerlines, as a vtkPolyData
• -centerlinesfile CenterlinesInputFileName (str,1) — filename for the default Centerlines reader 📂
• -groupidsarray GroupIdsArrayName (str,1); default=GroupIds — name of the array holding the group ids
• -groupids GroupIds (int,-1); default=[] — the group ids themselves. an actual empty list, she contains multitudes
• -insideout InsideOut (bool,1); default=0 — flip the inside/outside situation 🌀
• -useradius UseRadiusInformation (bool,1); default=1 — use the radius info. on by default, she's thorough
• -radiusarray RadiusArrayName (str,1); default=MaximumInscribedSphereRadius — the name of the radius array
• -blankingarray BlankingArrayName (str,1); default=Blanking — the name of the blanking array
• -cutoffradiusfactor CutoffRadiusFactor (float,1) >= 0.0; default=1e+16 — the cutoff radius factor. must be >= 0.0, and the default is a whole 1e+16, which is basically "no cutoff, don't worry about it" 🌈
• -clipvalue ClipValue (float,1); default=0.0 — the clip value
• -interactive Interactive (bool,1); default=0 — interactive mode. it's in the name of the script, but the default is 0, so she's off unless you say so 🙈
• -renderer vmtkRenderer (vmtkRenderer,1) — external renderer, if you've got one lying around 🎨
• -ofile MeshOutputFileName (str,1) — filename for the default Mesh writer ✍️
• -ocenterlinesfile CenterlinesOutputFileName (str,1) — filename for the default Centerlines writer ✍️

💜 Output arguments

• -id Id (str,1); default=0 — script id, again, because she knows you love redundancy 💖
• -handle Self (self,1) — handle to self, again 🫶
• -o Mesh (vtkUnstructuredGrid,1) — the output mesh, as a vtkUnstructuredGrid
• -ocenterlines Centerlines (vtkPolyData,1) — the output centerlines, as a vtkPolyData

note: the input args and output args both list -id and -handle, and that's fr fr how the page says it. don't come for me, I'm just the messenger 💅
