API for Mesh Data (tessellation)

[ans-spohekar]

📝 Description of the feature

Instead of calling tessellate on each body/face/edge, can we get Mesh Data directly (one shot call to tessellate)
It will avoid unnecessary grpc calls too

@ans-spohekar calling it on the body level eliminates the need for calling on the face level, There is no edge tessellation. You can also call on the Part level to get all child bodies. I don't see anything further that can be done here.

Proposing to close @jrwest440 ?

If we are asking for a single call that would get all face and edge tessellation for an entire model, I'm not sure if that's a good idea. That result data could be extremely large and could also be very difficult to map. I don't think we would not want to transfer additional mapping data for Part -> tessellation.

Hi @jrwest440
Yes, I was looking for one shot api to get the whole tessellation
