vtkLineRepresentation

Section: Visualization Toolkit Widget Classes

Usage

This class is a concrete representation for the vtkLineWidget2. It represents a straight line with three handles: one at the beginning and ending of the line, and one used to translate the line. Through interaction with the widget, the line representation can be arbitrarily placed in the 3D space.

To use this representation, you normally specify the position of the two end points (either in world or display coordinates). The PlaceWidget() method is also used to intially position the representation.

To create an instance of class vtkLineRepresentation, simply invoke its constructor as follows

  obj = vtkLineRepresentation
