OpenMesh offers the possibility to store properties on mesh elements (faces, vertices, half edges, edges) as described here. Is there a function available which copies all of these properties from one element to another?

Take a look at copy_all_properties.

Signature (comes in few flavors- VertexHandle, HalfedgeHandle, EdgeHandle and FaceHandle):

void OpenMesh::BaseKernel::copy_all_properties(EdgeHandle _eh_from, EdgeHandle  _eh_to, bool _copyBuildIn = false )

Usage example from git repo: unittests_property.cc

  • is it possible to use `copy_all_properties` to copy properties of elements that belong to different meshes, given that the same property exists on the elements of the other mesh? – Botond Oct 23 '20 at 22:06
  • No. Link to your new question: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/64538092/openmesh-copy-all-properties-between-elements-belonging-to-different-meshes (as reference for future readers) – Mark Loyman Oct 26 '20 at 21:22
  • Thanks, Mark. I added a minimal example to my new question to show it does not work. – Botond Oct 26 '20 at 21:27
