paraview.simple.RotationalExtrusion

paraview.simple.RotationalExtrusion(*input, **params)

The Rotational Extrusion filter forms a surface by rotating the input about the Z axis. This filter is intended to operate on 2D polygonal data. It produces polygonal output.

Data Descriptors

Angle

This property specifies the angle of rotation in degrees. The surface is swept from 0 to the value of this property.

Capping

If this property is set to 1, the open ends of the swept surface will be capped with a copy of the input dataset. This works property if the input is a 2D surface composed of filled polygons. If the input dataset is a closed solid (e.g., a sphere), then either two copies of the dataset will be drawn or no surface will be drawn. No surface is drawn if either this property is set to 0 or if the two surfaces would occupy exactly the same 3D space (i.e., the Angle property’s value is a multiple of 360, and the values of the Translation and DeltaRadius properties are 0).

DeltaRadius

The value of this property specifies the change in radius during the sweep process.

Input

This property specifies the input to the Rotational Extrusion filter.

Resolution

The value of this property controls the number of intermediate node points used in performing the sweep (rotating from 0 degrees to the value specified by the Angle property.

RotationAxis

The values of this property set the direction of the axis around which the rotation is done.

Translation

The value of this property specifies the total amount of translation along the rotation axis during the sweep process. Specifying a non-zero value for this property allows you to create a corkscrew (value of DeltaRadius > 0) or spring effect.

Methods

Initialize = aInitialize(self, connection=None, update=True)

Methods inherited from SourceProxy

FileNameChanged(self)

Called when the filename of a source proxy is changed.

GetCellDataInformation(self)

Returns the associated cell data information.

GetDataInformation(self, idx=None)

This method returns a DataInformation wrapper around a vtkPVDataInformation

GetFieldDataInformation(self)

Returns the associated cell data information.

GetPointDataInformation(self)

Returns the associated point data information.

UpdatePipeline(self, time=None)

This method updates the server-side VTK pipeline and the associated data information. Make sure to update a source to validate the output meta-data.

UpdatePipelineInformation(self)

This method updates the meta-data of the server-side VTK pipeline and the associated information properties

__getitem__(self, idx)

Given a slice, int or string, returns the corresponding output port

Methods inherited from Proxy

GetProperty(self, name)

Given a property name, returns the property object.

GetPropertyValue(self, name)

Returns a scalar for properties with 1 elements, the property itself for vectors.

InitializeFromProxy(self, aProxy, update=True)

Constructor. Assigns proxy to self.SMProxy, updates the server object as well as register the proxy in _pyproxies dictionary.

ListProperties(self)

Returns a list of all property names on this proxy.

SetPropertyWithName(self, pname, arg)

Generic method for setting the value of a property.

__del__(self)

Destructor. Cleans up all observers as well as remove the proxy from the _pyproxies dictionary

__eq__(self, other)

Returns true if the underlying SMProxies are the same.

__getattr__(self, name)

With the exception of a few overloaded methods, returns the SMProxy method

__hash__(self)

Return hash(self).

__init__(self, **args)

Default constructor. It can be used to initialize properties by passing keyword arguments where the key is the name of the property. In addition registrationGroup and registrationName (optional) can be specified (as keyword arguments) to automatically register the proxy with the proxy manager.

__iter__(self)

Creates an iterator for the properties.

__ne__(self, other)

Returns false if the underlying SMProxies are the same.

__setattr__(self, name, value)

Implement setattr(self, name, value).

add_attribute(self, name, value)
