Update or Replace exist mesh in Discovery live/Spaceclaim

seghier

Hello
I create a plugin to send meshes from Rhino/Grasshopper to Ansys discovery live
I follow the documentation of Ansys but i don't find anything about update or replace existing mesh
I use this way:
1. Hide oldmesh.
2. Create new mesh.
3. Delete the old one.

but i prefer a better solution if exist

 public static void ReplaceMeshes(List<Rhino.Geometry.Mesh> meshes, string name)
        {
            Solver.Pause();
            WriteBlock.ExecuteTask("Replace Mesh", () => ReplaceMeshSmooth(meshes, name));
            Solver.Start();
        }

private static void ReplaceMeshSmooth(List<Rhino.Geometry.Mesh> meshes, string baseName)
        {
            var window = Window.ActiveWindow;
            var mainPart = window.Document.MainPart;

            // Get existing meshes
            var existingMeshes = mainPart.Meshes.Where(m => m.Name.Contains(baseName)).ToList();
            var existingProperties = new Dictionary<string, MeshProperties>();

            // Store properties of existing meshes
            foreach (var mesh in existingMeshes)
            {
                existingProperties[mesh.Name] = new MeshProperties
                {
                    Visibility = mesh.IsVisible,
                    // Add other properties as needed
                };
            }

            // Hide existing meshes instead of deleting
            foreach (var mesh in existingMeshes)
            {
                mesh.SetVisibility(null, false);
            }

            // Create new meshes
            for (int i = 0; i < meshes.Count; i++)
            {
                var mesh = meshes[i];
                var meshName = baseName + "_new_" + i;

                mesh.Faces.ConvertQuadsToTriangles();
                var vertices = Spoints(mesh.Vertices.ToList());
                var faces = Sfaces(mesh.Faces.ToList());

                var smesh = SpaceClaim.Api.V19.DesignMesh.Create(mainPart, meshName, vertices, faces);

                // Apply stored properties
                if (existingProperties.ContainsKey(baseName + "_" + i))
                {
                    var props = existingProperties[baseName + "_" + i];
                    smesh.SetVisibility(null, props.Visibility);
                }

                smesh.KeepAlive(true);
            }

            // Cleanup old meshes after a delay (optional)
            System.Threading.Tasks.Task.Delay(100).ContinueWith(t =>
            {
                WriteBlock.ExecuteTask("Cleanup Old Meshes", () =>
                {
                    foreach (var mesh in existingMeshes.Where(m => m != null))
                    {
                        try { mesh.Delete(); } catch { }
                    }
                });
            });
        }
