DataSetFilters.decimate_boundary#

DataSetFilters.decimate_boundary(
target_reduction: float = 0.5,
*,
progress_bar: bool = False,
) → PolyData[source]#

Return a decimated version of a triangulation of the boundary.

Only the outer surface of the input dataset will be considered.

Parameters:
target_reductionfloat, default: 0.5

Fraction of the original mesh to remove. TargetReduction is set to 0.9, this filter will try to reduce the data set to 10% of its original size and will remove 90% of the input triangles.

progress_barbool, default: False

Display a progress bar to indicate progress.

Returns:
pyvista.PolyData

Decimated boundary.
