Hi, I've recently discovered Cleaver2 after a commercial software
package we used to use has become unavailable. I'm excited to try it as
it looks quite promising.
I've made a few attempts to mesh a test model (human heart) but have run
into a few problems.
Firstly, as has been noted in some prior messages on this list, the
software takes an enormous amount of RAM. I've ordered a new motherboard
and CPU with a larger capacity for RAM and will have that set up
tomorrow.
Secondly, there seem to be some bugs and/or inconsistent behavior in the
version on GitHub. I'm working on tracking these problems down but I'm
hoping someone else may have already seen them and fixed them. One
problem is that the selection of adaptive/constant in the gui seems to
have no effect -- meshes are always created adaptively. Currently I'm
trying to track down where this happens in the gui code. Another problem
is that the cleaver-cli ignores the -c argument for resolution, because
of inconsistent use of command-line option variables in the code. I was
able to fix this by simply replacing a couple of instances around line
225 where it says "scaling" with "scale". However, the cli mesher still
seems to completely ignore the provided segmentation and create a very
blocky and irregularly-shaped mesh with few tetrahedra.
I'd like to help resolve these problems but I figured I should check in
on the state of the project first. Is it possible that some of this has
been fixed and just not pushed to GitHub?
Thanks,
--Brock
