ReduceToTriangleCount error about geometry3sharp HOT 2 CLOSED

Ok, well, thanks for sending the file because it helped me make some improvements, but you will probably not be happy with the results...

1. this mesh has some nonmanifold geometry, that is why you were getting the error. Basically once you have nonmanifold geom, the results are undefined. I updated the reducer tutorial with a bit about how to check your mesh for this, using DMesh3.CheckValidity

2. The Reducer can now handle this particular nonmanifold geometry, so it won't throw an error anymore.

3. This mesh has boundaries so you have to turn on the boundary-preservation I mention in the tutorial. Otherwise it will create holes/etc in the result as it tries to reach your target count.

4. The library currently does not supported multiple UVs per vertex. So, when a textured OBJ is loaded, the mesh is split at any UV-seams. As a result this mesh is split all over the place (see below). Combined with the preserve-boundary, this means that basically there are no triangles to collapse, it can't get below 3992 triangles w/o modifying the boundary somewhere.

Basically, the current implementation is meant for simplifying unstructured meshes. You have a highly structured mesh that is already basically a minimal triangulation of the shape. Particularly because of the UV seams/etc. So to automatically simplify further is quite difficult, well beyond what I intend to use this implementation for.

thank you very much ，i will always be concerned about and use this project
I hope we can be friends， i like this project

       r.SetExternalConstraints(new MeshConstraints());
        MeshConstraintUtil.FixAllBoundaryEdges(r.Constraints, mesh);

        r.ReduceToTriangleCount(300);

I would like to simplify the surface to 300 but i get 3992 Why is this，MeshLab can do it

please help me
