Description
Summary
MergeFields glues any number of input fields into one output field.
Detailed Description
This module is intended to replace GatherFields and fix a number of problems associate with the old module.
This module takes in an arbitrary number of input fields and gathers them all up into one output field. If the input fields all have the same editable mesh type then the output field will also be of the same type. If the meshes are not editable or of different mesh types then only their points will be gathered up and a single PointCloudField will be produced.
The module has the option to merge nodes together when they are at the same physical location. Often due to numeric round off, they are at a slightly different position. Hence the module allows to set a tolerance which is used to determine whether two nodes are in fact the same. The tolerance is a simple measure in distance that is applied to see whether nodes are the same.
