Read one or more CRANT neuron and nuclei meshes

Read one or more CRANT neuron and nuclei meshes

Usage

crant_read_neuron_meshes(ids, savedir = NULL, format = c("ply", "obj"), ...)

crant_read_nuclei_mesh(
  ids,
  lod = 0L,
  savedir = NULL,
  method = c("vf", "ply"),
  ...
)

Arguments

ids

One or more root ids

savedir

An optional location to save downloaded meshes. This acts as a simple but effective cache since flywire neurons change id whenever they are edited.

format

whether to save meshes in Wavefront obj or Stanford poly format. obj is the default but ply is a simpler and more compact format.

...

Additional arguments passed to fafbseg::read_cloudvolume_meshes

lod

The level of detail (highest resolution is 0, default of 2 gives a good overall morphology while 3 is also useful and smaller still).

method

How to treat the mesh object returned from neuroglancer, i.e. as a mesh3d object or a ply mesh.

Value

A neuronlist containing one or more mesh3d objects. See nat::read.neurons for details.
