Currently Archer supports table editing for mesh data in BoTs. Editing is interactive, in that when a particular shell of a model is highlighted in the tree panel, users can update its vertex information via a table. Similar interactive editing is proposed here to provide interactive editing of the Non-Manifold Geometry data-structures (NMG) [1] in BRL-CAD. In addition to editing, validation on the models will be performed and the results displayed for the user in Archer’s interface.

This project will expose some of the low-level NMG routines to a command-line interface. Users will be able to add and remove various parts of the NMG data structure, such as regions and shells, along with manipulation of vertices, edges, and faces. A similar set of command-lines will allow for manipulation of "Bag of Triangles" (BoT) data-structures. Users will see the results displayed in either MGED or Archer.
