SeamCost

Remarks

docs/plan/42 § D4. Every weight multiplies a term that is already normalized to [0, 1], so the numbers compare with each other and a caller can zero one out without rebalancing the rest.

⚠ Length is the term everything else is traded against. Raise it and the cutter takes the short way round a feature it should have followed; drop it and seams wander through flat regions collecting a fractional saving each time.

Fields and properties (7)

• public float Concavity

  Prefers a seam sitting in a crease that folds inward, where a discontinuity does not read.

• public float Visibility

  Prefers a seam that is occluded, estimated by ambient occlusion over the surface.

• public float Feature

  Prefers a seam following a hard edge, where a normal-map discontinuity is invisible anyway.

• public float Material

  Prefers a seam running where the texture already changes.

• public float Symmetry

  Prefers a seam on the mirror plane, so the two halves' seams agree exactly.

• public float Length

  Prefers a short seam. The term the others are traded against.

• public float Existing

  Prefers a seam that was already there, when re-unwrapping a mesh that had coordinates.
