vtkAreaLayout

Section: Visualization Toolkit Infovis Classes

Usage

vtkAreaLayout assigns sector regions to each vertex in the tree, creating a tree ring. The data is added as a data array with four components per tuple representing the location and size of the sector using the format (StartAngle, EndAngle, innerRadius, outerRadius).

This algorithm relies on a helper class to perform the actual layout. This helper class is a subclass of vtkAreaLayoutStrategy.
