Hi community,

I describe multiple cuboid objects with alphashape. Now i want to cut out a smaller cuboid out of a bigger cuboid and get the remaining coordinates of the big cuboid.

Is there any easier solution to do so? Like simular to the polyshape function 'subtract' (https://de.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/polyshape.subtract.html). I tried it also ones with the polyshape function. For this i used the top of the bigger cuboid and the top of the smaler cubiod, so two 2D-areas, and used the subtract function for polyshape'. Afterwards i repmat the coordinates and added the max and min corresponding z-coordinate. The code:

coordinates_bigCubiod = [-100 -100 -50; -100 -100 50; 100 -100 50; 100 -100 -50;...

100 100 -50; -100 100 -50; -100 100 50; 100 100 50];

coordinates_smallCubiod = [-25 -12.5 -25; -25 -12.5 25; 25 -12.5 25; 25 -12.5 -25;...

25 12.5 -25; -25 12.5 -25; -25 12.5 25; 25 12.5 25];

polyshape_bigCubiod = polyshape(coordinates_bigCubiod([2 7 8 3],[1 2]));

polyshape_smallCubiod = polyshape(coordinates_smallCubiod([2 7 8 3],[1 2]));

%substract cuboid

polyshape_bigCubiod = subtract(polyshape_bigCubiod,polyshape_smallCubiod);

vertices_topPlate = polyshape_bigCubiod.Vertices(~logical(sum(isnan(polyshape_bigCubiod.Vertices),2)),:);

z_values = unique(coordinates_bigCubiod(:,3));

z_values = repelem(z_values,size(vertices_topPlate,1));

coordinates_bigCubiod = [repmat(vertices_topPlate,[2,1]) z_values];

alphashape_bigCubiod = alphaShape(coordinates_bigCubiod);

figure();

plot(alphashape_bigCubiod);

Unfortunatly, if i plot now the alphashape it doesnt look at all how it should look.

Do you have any idea how to solve this problem?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Your code does not run, see error message above.

As a minor point, you've also spelled cuboid incorrectly throughout your code.

I updated the code :)

Hi Nicolas,

You can try using " Patch Function " to create the cuboids and then substract them using boolean operation.

Create patches of colored polygons - MATLAB patch (mathworks.com)

Is there a function to subtract to patch objects from each other? I can not find any related function for this. Thanks for your help :)
