it's a bug or I missing some option to set? when I render it to images or animation, the animatable option become uncheck , and rendered frames are all the same frame.

I just noticed the notes of animatable option. sorry.

I get these error messages when I click on Mesh Tissue check box.

Click to install, either version 0.3.25 (came with Blender) or 0.3.31 (downloaded zip) and getting a 'failed to import multiarray from numpy.core' message.

I've attached the system info generated by blender and distro stuff below:

Hi, first of all huge thank you for this amazing plugin, I'm having a lot of fun with it.
I would like to suggest some small UI change, which would help first time users and add to UI consistency, I think. Tessallate button actually opens tessallation properties popup window. From the first time user perspective it is like: "Ok, if I click this button, it will tessallate, but where can I set tessallation properties first?"
Common practice is that buttons have names of what they do if it is possible.
I would suggest that you change the name of the button to Tessellation Settings or something like this, which would make UI more self-explanatory. And then on the popup, on the end it is OK button. OK what? OK to save settings somewhere, or OK to tessalate? I would change OK button name to "Tessallate" or "OK, Tessalate" or "Tessalate Now" or something like this.

Beside these small and minor UI inconsistencies, for me this is one of the most genious blender plugins. Congrats!

After the creation of the lattice, parameters changes cause wrong object scale.

Some informations are not correctly transferred from the original component:

• Vertex Groups
• UV maps
• Vertex Colors
• Vertex Bevel Weight

Trying to run the latest tissue (0.3.32) on the latest blender 2.81 (version: 2.81 (sub 3), branch: master, commit date: 2019-08-28 03:44, hash: rBf88022b96f3a)

This is not really a bug issue so I'm not sure if it's ok to ask about this here.
I'm using Tessalate. I've created a component mesh similar to one you used in one of your videos. My base mesh is a logo that I drew and then modeled. When I tessalate the component to the base mesh, some pieces end up turning in different directions. Is there any advice you can give on how to correct this?

I've attached a screen shot. I hope this helps.
Thanks for a great add-on!

Find a way to control direction and depth variation of the tessellation using two or more surfaces.
Possible idea: use shape keys on the base mesh.

The scaling factor shouldn't be based on component bounding box, but on a square 1x1 in local and scale.x * scale.y in local mode.

Add an option in order to set the offset of the components according to the origin of the object.
Currently in order to do that, Local coordinates must be used, but this may be more complex for some users.

Steps to reproduce - just do a tesselation operation on any mesh. Same goes with dual mesh (convert to dual mesh works though).

Errors with floating points, wrong topology or wrong modifiers.

The order of the edges is different, for that reason is necessary to derive the correct indices from the faces.

Hi, I'm having a lot of fun with your plugin, thank you so much for sharing this amazing project with all of us!
I'm wondering what is the purpose of g-code exporter in dev branch?
Because normal workflow for milling would be to export stl to some CAD/CAM package (e.g. Fusion 360 or Powermill) for setting toolpaths for 3D/4D/5D/6D milling.
In the case of 3D printing normal workflow would be to export file to Prusa Slicer (e.g. for Prusa printer) to fine-tune printing process there. Because, you know, "right tool for the right job"...
Or maybe I totally missed some special functionality of g-code exporter? Please let me know!

Speaking of import/export capabilities I would to suggest some text format (e.g. json) to export tessalation data. That way users of your plugin would easily exchange "tissues" among themselves, apply them to different objects or build templates for tessalations. For the ispiration I'm attaching video of such capability in latest version of BY-GEN plugin, which is also great plugin for generative modelling. Just my 0.2 $

Hi @alessandro-zomparelli , I've tried edge version of Tissue addon on blender 2.8 but I really don't know how to use this because there is no buttons added to the blender tools icons. It is supposed to add it to the blender tool bar ?

thanks

I did installation like it is write. It work but when I tried to tessellate an object it was giving me an error so I uninstalled it and tried to reinstall it but now I can't reinstall it. I even deleted the version that comes with blender and reinstalling still did not work. I'm wondering if you can add an update button straight into the default app.

I want a gradient effect that goes from unstable to stable F or K values, but the UI won't let me enter negative numbers. Please consider the manual entry of "unsafe" parameters.

It installed in the folder, but can't find it in addons.
Removed 3.5 one, installed this one, but not there.

Tried 2 other addons, and they install and show okay.

Using Blender 2.78 on a Mac after activating the plugin the tissue tools appear in the tools tab but there is no tissue tab for tesselate.

• None: default
• Cap: makes individual faces for each naked loop
• Bridge: bridge naked loops pairs

I'm continuously getting an error saying "name'module_filesystem_remove' is not defined"
please help me with this

Hi Alessandro, I tried installing Numba and wondering if there is a way to turn this on and off or indicator whether Numba is properly installed and now the speed is like 100x faster for RD, etc?

Zero faces created

" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVNYyJeLGZI&t=30s " skip to time 16:18 that is the feature im talking about

Tessellate Patch doesn't support Shape Keys

I kept getting this error message when using the Tissue Add-On, not sure why. Probably because it was expecting material?

. Error when zero Frame Thickness
. Material offset for Fill and Bounds not working
. Material offset should be visible even if not using Multicomponents, but disabled

Hi,

I'm on blender 2.8 hash: rB12da679fa094

Tried to use the UV to Mesh option, but I got this error.

I am getting this weird error:

Collecting numba
Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: Could not find a suitable TLS CA certificate bundle, invalid path: /var/folders/r3/13y_zxhn0557ftnbz9xrt7x00000gn/T/tmpirxrgymy/pip-10.0.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl/pip/_vendor/certifi/cacert.pem

And when running Reaction Diffusion, it feels like it's doing nothing, or too slow.

Allow to use Bisect in U and V according to Local/Global coordinates.
Options:
. "Keep open" / "Cap" / "Mark Seams"
. "Remove" / "Repeat-Loop"

Maybe different options for U and V is better.

After rotating a face, the assigned material is lost

Transfer UV map from base object.
Should be optional because can slow down the tessellation.

Hi Allessandro, i think i found a bug.

I have a mesh and a mesh wire. The result looks right but there is a quadratic structure in the tesselated mesh:

Here is the blend:

Hi I get the following stack

If I delete 'layer.hide_viewport or ' in line 67 in tessellate_numpy.py it works. I don't now the side effect though.

With version 3.31 on linux and blender 2.80 (but behaviour is the same on former versions of tissue) the speed of the reaction diffusion depends of the total number of vertices of the scene, not of the mesh, even in local view or with all the other objects hidden.

Hi Alessandro, I'm trying to make a dual mesh out of a basic sculpted mesh, just as in this tutorial:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zo2phSY4hrE

at minute 4:10

but somehow it doesn't work and the console gives me this error:

KeyError: 'bpy_prop_collection[key]: key "DualMesh_QUAD_Component" not found'

Do you know by chance the reason why?

Thanks a lot

Hi,

I'm very interested to try Tissue, but Blender 2.8's API had just changed again, causing many add-ons not to work anymore, including Tissue.

Many thanks in advance for fixing it.

Kind regards,

Metin

Hi.

I would like to know if there is a way to control the component thickness by using vertex group values (weights).
Vertex value 1 = 100 % scaling
Vertex value 0.5 = 50 % scaling
Vertex value 0 = 0 % scaling

Or is there another way for a dynamic thickness?

Thank you!

When tessellating a UV unwrapped mesh, if On selected faces option is toggled on, it appears the, rotation based on the Active UV is ignored

Hi,

thank you for the great work you did with that tissue add-on.
Currently I'm running into this issue.
I'm working on data, that came from CAD models. In order to have them in correct dimensions (necessary for physics based renderings - in my case optics) I've to use Blender's unit capabilities. Usually they are set to pre-defined "Millimeters".

In that case there seems to be some trouble with the tessaltion option in this add-on.
Results look totally destroyed.
Please have look into that. Thanks a lot.

Hello! I tried to install Tissue Addon for Blender, but instead of the separate toolshelf I see in the tutorials I only get this small sub-shelf without the Tessellate options. What is wrong here? I use Blender 2.78.5

My screen

How it should be (image by Blenderwiki)

Thanks in advance!

If the contour loop is coincident with vertices some issues can occur:

Error creating Patch Tessellation, if the active layer is hidden, it's not possible to join them.

I'm opening this issue in order to collect in one place feedbacks about UI and usability.
Adding so many options to the Tessellation allows to cover many different cases, but at the same time it can make difficult to orient in all such settings.
If you have any comment that can help to improve the usability of the tools keeping them technically correct they are welcome.

Select two objects, exactly as you show in your presentation. But no tissue menu options appear - they are hidden behind the pull back thing on the edge of the viewport.

If running Reaction-Diffusion, realtime painting cases crash on Blender 2.80

Would it be possible to add a license file, to make it clearer what the license is?

I'm adding the project to this list :)
