Three-dimensional shape data generating apparatus, three-dimensional modeling apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable medium

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a three-dimensional shape data generating process, the process comprising:

• acquiring element data generated by dividing a three-dimensional shape into first elements, the three-dimensional shape being modeled with a plurality of modeling materials having different resolutions, each first element corresponding to a resolution of a first modeling material among the plurality of modeling materials;
• dividing the three-dimensional shape into second elements, each second element corresponding to a second modeling material having a resolution lower than the resolution of the first modeling material and having a size larger than the first element;
• and
• generating three-dimensional shape data through setting modeling materials for the first and second elements, respectively, according to the number of the first elements covered by the second element by setting the second modeling material as the modeling material for the second element when, among a plurality of the first elements covered by the second element, the number of the first elements that is set to use the second modeling material is greater than or equal to than a predefined threshold.
