Dear Developers.
I have my own skeleton file and information about the diameters at different locations, and I would like to use this software to generate him as a tree without leaves. In fact, I am trying to develop an airway model, which is actually very much like a tree. I have calculated its skeleton and its width at different locations. But I am not very good at programming and I need your help.
All the best,

Since you've already obtained the skeleton (with the radius information), you can then extract a surface mesh to represent the tree geometry.
This is implemented in bool Skeleton::extract_branch_surfaces(SurfaceMesh* result) (line 1462 in skeleton.cpp). You first need to store the nodes and their corresponding radii in the Branch structure, as shown in line 1464 in skeleton.cpp: const std::vector<Branch>& branches = .... Then for each branch, you call the add_generalized_cylinder_to_model(...) function to extract its surface.
I believe the problem has been solved, so I am going to close this issue.
Feel free to reopen it when this is not the case.
Good luck with your research!
