Section: Visualization Toolkit Graphics Classes
To use this class, specify the glyph type to use and its attributes. Attributes include its position (i.e., center point), scale, color, and whether the symbol is filled or not (a polygon or closed line sequence). You can also put a short line through the glyph running from -x to +x (the glyph looks like it's on a line), or a cross.
To create an instance of class vtkGlyphSource2D, simply invoke its constructor as follows
obj = vtkGlyphSource2D
obj
is an instance of the vtkGlyphSource2D class.
string = obj.GetClassName ()
int = obj.IsA (string name)
vtkGlyphSource2D = obj.NewInstance ()
vtkGlyphSource2D = obj.SafeDownCast (vtkObject o)
obj.SetCenter (double , double , double )
- Set the center of the glyph. By default the center is (0,0,0).
obj.SetCenter (double a[3])
- Set the center of the glyph. By default the center is (0,0,0).
double = obj. GetCenter ()
- Set the center of the glyph. By default the center is (0,0,0).
obj.SetScale (double )
- Set the scale of the glyph. Note that the glyphs are designed
to fit in the (1,1) rectangle.
double = obj.GetScaleMinValue ()
- Set the scale of the glyph. Note that the glyphs are designed
to fit in the (1,1) rectangle.
double = obj.GetScaleMaxValue ()
- Set the scale of the glyph. Note that the glyphs are designed
to fit in the (1,1) rectangle.
double = obj.GetScale ()
- Set the scale of the glyph. Note that the glyphs are designed
to fit in the (1,1) rectangle.
obj.SetScale2 (double )
- Set the scale of optional portions of the glyph (e.g., the
dash and cross is DashOn() and CrossOn()).
double = obj.GetScale2MinValue ()
- Set the scale of optional portions of the glyph (e.g., the
dash and cross is DashOn() and CrossOn()).
double = obj.GetScale2MaxValue ()
- Set the scale of optional portions of the glyph (e.g., the
dash and cross is DashOn() and CrossOn()).
double = obj.GetScale2 ()
- Set the scale of optional portions of the glyph (e.g., the
dash and cross is DashOn() and CrossOn()).
obj.SetColor (double , double , double )
- Set the color of the glyph. The default color is white.
obj.SetColor (double a[3])
- Set the color of the glyph. The default color is white.
double = obj. GetColor ()
- Set the color of the glyph. The default color is white.
obj.SetFilled (int )
- Specify whether the glyph is filled (a polygon) or not (a
closed polygon defined by line segments). This only applies
to 2D closed glyphs.
int = obj.GetFilled ()
- Specify whether the glyph is filled (a polygon) or not (a
closed polygon defined by line segments). This only applies
to 2D closed glyphs.
obj.FilledOn ()
- Specify whether the glyph is filled (a polygon) or not (a
closed polygon defined by line segments). This only applies
to 2D closed glyphs.
obj.FilledOff ()
- Specify whether the glyph is filled (a polygon) or not (a
closed polygon defined by line segments). This only applies
to 2D closed glyphs.
obj.SetDash (int )
- Specify whether a short line segment is drawn through the
glyph. (This is in addition to the glyph. If the glyph type
is set to "Dash" there is no need to enable this flag.)
int = obj.GetDash ()
- Specify whether a short line segment is drawn through the
glyph. (This is in addition to the glyph. If the glyph type
is set to "Dash" there is no need to enable this flag.)
obj.DashOn ()
- Specify whether a short line segment is drawn through the
glyph. (This is in addition to the glyph. If the glyph type
is set to "Dash" there is no need to enable this flag.)
obj.DashOff ()
- Specify whether a short line segment is drawn through the
glyph. (This is in addition to the glyph. If the glyph type
is set to "Dash" there is no need to enable this flag.)
obj.SetCross (int )
- Specify whether a cross is drawn as part of the glyph. (This
is in addition to the glyph. If the glyph type is set to
"Cross" there is no need to enable this flag.)
int = obj.GetCross ()
- Specify whether a cross is drawn as part of the glyph. (This
is in addition to the glyph. If the glyph type is set to
"Cross" there is no need to enable this flag.)
obj.CrossOn ()
- Specify whether a cross is drawn as part of the glyph. (This
is in addition to the glyph. If the glyph type is set to
"Cross" there is no need to enable this flag.)
obj.CrossOff ()
- Specify whether a cross is drawn as part of the glyph. (This
is in addition to the glyph. If the glyph type is set to
"Cross" there is no need to enable this flag.)
obj.SetRotationAngle (double )
- Specify an angle (in degrees) to rotate the glyph around
the z-axis. Using this ivar, it is possible to generate
rotated glyphs (e.g., crosses, arrows, etc.)
double = obj.GetRotationAngle ()
- Specify an angle (in degrees) to rotate the glyph around
the z-axis. Using this ivar, it is possible to generate
rotated glyphs (e.g., crosses, arrows, etc.)
