BlendDataMeshes(bpy_prop_collection)

base classes — bpy_prop, bpy_prop_collection

class bpy.types.BlendDataMeshes(bpy_prop_collection)

Collection of meshes

new(name)

Add a new mesh to the main database

Parameters:

name (str) – New name for the data-block (never None)

Returns:

New mesh data-block

Return type:

Mesh

new_from_object(object, *, preserve_all_data_layers=False, depsgraph=None)

Add a new mesh created from given object (undeformed geometry if object is original, and final evaluated geometry, with all modifiers etc., if object is evaluated)

Parameters:

  • object (Object) – Object to create mesh from (never None)

  • preserve_all_data_layers (bool) – Preserve all data layers in the mesh, like UV maps and vertex groups. By default Blender only computes the subset of data layers needed for viewport display and rendering, for better performance. (optional)

  • depsgraph (Depsgraph) – Dependency Graph, Evaluated dependency graph which is required when preserve_all_data_layers is true (optional)

Returns:

Mesh created from object, remove it if it is only used for export

Return type:

Mesh

remove(mesh, *, do_unlink=True, do_id_user=True, do_ui_user=True)

Remove a mesh from the current blendfile

Parameters:

  • mesh (Mesh) – Mesh to remove (never None)

  • do_unlink (bool) – Unlink all usages of this mesh before deleting it (WARNING: will also delete objects instancing that mesh data) (optional)

  • do_id_user (bool) – Decrement user counter of all data-blocks used by this mesh data (optional)

  • do_ui_user (bool) – Make sure interface does not reference this mesh data (optional)

tag(value)

tag

Parameters:

value (bool) – Value

classmethod bl_rna_get_subclass(id, default=None, /)
Parameters:

classmethod bl_rna_get_subclass_py(id, default=None, /)
Parameters:

  • id (str) – The RNA type identifier.

  • default (type | None) – The value to return when not found.

Returns:

The class or default when not found.

Return type:

type
