AntoineSfx Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 So , I assume it is not implemented by any node, otherwise I would have found that term ( Douglas-Peucker ) sidefx.com This is an algorithm to simplify polygon by removing points that are almost (less than some epsilon) colinear https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramer–Douglas–Peucker_algorithm Do you think it would be a nice addition to resample ? Maybe it's already there and I can't find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourfather Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I don't know what algorithm they're using but the results look similar. http://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/nodes/sop/polyreduce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntoineSfx Posted February 5, 2018 Author Share Posted February 5, 2018 Thanks, it wasn't clear from the doc that it also applied to polygons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acey195 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 You may also try the facet node, with "remove inline points" enabled, this only works well on open polygons though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand This works. Polyreduce doesn't reduce polygons though, as I suspected from the documentation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
