Earns its place in the Superhive library as a focused single-purpose Sverchok node for filling closed loops, currently in its initial state with the developer aiming to fold it into the backbone.
Blender Sverchok Grid Fill Node is a script built for Script Node Lite in Sverchok, a node-based add-on for Blender. Its job is to fill closed loop edges with meshes, producing fill grid data from the geometry you feed it.
The node accepts verts and edges as model element data, plus an offset input that controls the fill grid rotation offset. An interp parameter switches between two behaviours: with interp set to true, the grid is populated using a simple interpolation method; with interp set to false, the grid fills without simple interpolation. The result is exposed as fill grid data.
The node imports its corresponding .json file through Sverchok's import function, and that file is packaged with the product. Documentation is included. The developer notes this is an initial single-node state with the eventual aim of merging into the backbone. It runs on Blender 2.92 and 2.93 under a GPL license, and a demo video is available.
Blender Sverchok Grid Fill Node is best for blender users working in Sverchok who need to fill closed loop edges with mesh grids.
Blender Sverchok Grid Fill Node is completely free to download and use.
Blender Sverchok Grid Fill Node lists compatibility with Blender 2.92 and 2.93. It operates inside Sverchok as a script for Script Node Lite, so you will need Sverchok installed to use it. The node imports its corresponding .json file through Sverchok's import function, and that file ships with the product. Because compatibility is tied to those specific Blender versions, check the developer's page before using it with a newer release.
Blender Sverchok Grid Fill Node imports its corresponding .json file using Sverchok's built-in import function. That .json file is packaged with the product, and documentation is included to help you get started. Once loaded, the node takes verts and edges as inputs along with an offset value for fill grid rotation offset, then outputs fill grid data. A demo video is also available.
Blender Sverchok Grid Fill Node uses an interp parameter to switch between two fill methods. When interp is set to true, the node populates the grid using a simple interpolation method. When interp is set to false, it fills the grid without using simple interpolation. Alongside interp, the node accepts an offset input that sets the fill grid rotation offset. Both give you control over how closed loop edges are filled with meshes and how the resulting fill grid data is produced.
Blender Sverchok Grid Fill Node is listed as free in this catalog and is distributed under a GPL license. Licensing terms can change, so it is worth confirming the current details on the developer's page before you download. The product includes the packaged .json file the node imports through Sverchok, along with documentation. The developer also notes this is an initial single-node release, with the stated goal of merging it into the backbone over time.
