Plot settings

fontSize=25;

Import a binary type STL file as patch data

%Set main folder
defaultFolder = fileparts(fileparts(mfilename('fullpath')));
pathName=fullfile(defaultFolder,'data','STL');
fileName=fullfile(pathName,'femur_bin.stl');
[stlStruct] = import_STL_bin(fileName);

F=stlStruct.solidFaces{1};
V=stlStruct.solidVertices{1};

Merging nodes example

[F,V]=mergeVertices(F,V);

Plotting the model

cFigure;
title('Imported patch data from STL','fontSize',fontSize);
gpatch(F,V,'g');
