Get number of model faces

[james.herbst]

Hi All,
I'm trying to get the number of faces of the model in the active chunk. I have done it by accessing the model statistics as in this thread (https://www.agisoft.com/forum/index.php?topic=11026.0) but this code analyses the mesh each time taking 60 seconds or so.  However, the 'faces' value is already calculated and displayed in the workplace/3D Model sidebar, in the properties pane, and in "Show Info..."

 Is there a way to access the metadata of the model to get the number of faces without having to reanalyse the mesh each time?
Thanks so much!
James

james,

I think an easy way to get number of faces is:

Code: [Select]

chunk = Metashape.app.document.chunk
len(chunk.model.faces) # no. of faces in model

yes, easy and fast! Exactly what I'm looking for.
Thanks, Paulo!
