vtkMCubesReader

Section: Visualization Toolkit IO Classes

Usage

vtkMCubesReader is a source object that reads binary marching cubes files. (Marching cubes is an isosurfacing technique that generates many triangles.) The binary format is supported by W. Lorensen's marching cubes program (and the vtkSliceCubes object). The format repeats point coordinates, so this object will merge the points with a vtkLocator object. You can choose to supply the vtkLocator or use the default.

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

  obj = vtkMCubesReader
