.SECTION Thanks Andrew Maclean a.maclean@cas.edu.au for creating and contributing the class.
To create an instance of class vtkParametricMobius, simply invoke its constructor as follows
obj = vtkParametricMobius
obj
is an instance of the vtkParametricMobius class.
string = obj.GetClassName ()
int = obj.IsA (string name)
vtkParametricMobius = obj.NewInstance ()
vtkParametricMobius = obj.SafeDownCast (vtkObject o)
obj.SetRadius (double )
- Set/Get the radius of the Mobius strip.
double = obj.GetRadius ()
- Set/Get the radius of the Mobius strip.
double = obj.EvaluateScalar (double uvw[3], double Pt[3], double Duvw[9])
- Calculate a user defined scalar using one or all of uvw, Pt, Duvw.
uvw are the parameters with Pt being the the cartesian point,
Duvw are the derivatives of this point with respect to u, v and w.
Pt, Du, Dv are obtained from Evaluate().
This function is only called if the ScalarMode has the value
vtkParametricFunctionSource::SCALAR_FUNCTION_DEFINED
If the user does not need to calculate a scalar, then the
instantiated function should return zero.
