Description
Orthogonality can be retrieved with mesh2d_get_orthogonality or with mesh2d_get_property, deprecate the first one. Also deprecate mesh2d_get_smoothness, after merging https://github.com/Deltares/MeshKernel/pull/543 and https://github.com/Deltares/MeshKernelPy/pull/282.
Grideditor/MKNet uses C-methods mkernel_mesh2d_get_smoothness en mkernel_mesh2d_get_orthogonality (as of 11 August 2026), so that would be a breaking change. Therefore, first release meshkernel with the smoothness added to get_property and ask them to update their code.

Research direction
Review mesh2d_get_orthogonality, mesh2d_get_smoothness, and mesh2d_get_property alongside PRs #543 and #282. Check how Grideditor/MKNet uses mkernel_mesh2d_get_smoothness and mkernel_mesh2d_get_orthogonality. Done means smoothness is available through get_property and the old APIs are deprecated only after the dependent release update.
