paraview.simple.GlyphLegacy(*input, **params)¶The Glyph filter generates a glyph (i.e., an arrow, cone, cube, cylinder, line, sphere, or 2D glyph) at each point in the input dataset. The glyphs can be oriented and scaled by the input point-centered scalars and vectors. The Glyph filter operates on any type of data set. Its output is polygonal
To use this filter, you first select the arrays to use for as the Scalars and Vectors, if any. To orient the glyphs using the selected Vectors, use Orient property. To scale the glyphs using the selected Scalars or Vectors, use the Scale Mode property.
The Glyph Mode property controls which points in the input dataset are selected for glyphing (since in most cases, glyphing all points in the input dataset can be both performance impeding as well as visually cluttered.
- GlyphMode
This property indicates the mode that will be used to generate glyphs from the dataset.
- GlyphTransform
The values in this property allow you to specify the transform (translation, rotation, and scaling) to apply to the glyph source.
- GlyphType
This property determines which type of glyph will be placed at the points in the input dataset.
- Input
This property specifies the input to the Glyph filter. This is the dataset from which the points are selected to be glyphed.
- MaximumNumberOfSamplePoints
This property specifies the maximum number of sample points to use when sampling the space when Uniform Spatial Distribution is used.
- Orient
If this property is set to 1, the glyphs will be oriented based on the vectors selected using the **Vectors** property.
- Scalars
Select the input array to be treated as the active **Scalars**. You can scale the glyphs using the selected scalars by setting the **Scale Mode** property to **scalar**.
- ScaleFactor
Specify the constant multiplier to use to scale the glyphs.
- ScaleMode
Select how to scale the glyphs. Set to **off** to disable scaling entirely. Set to **scalar** to scale the glyphs using the array selected using the **Scalars** property. Set to **vector** to scale the glyphs using the magnitude of the array selected using the **Vectors** property. Set to **vector_components** to scale using the **Vectors**, scaling each component individually.
- Seed
This property specifies the seed that will be used for generating a uniform distribution of glyph points when a Uniform Spatial Distribution is used.
- Stride
This property specifies the stride that will be used when glyphing by Every Nth Point.
- Vectors
Select the input array to be treated as the active **Vectors**. You can scale the glyphs using the selected vectors by setting the **Scale Mode** property to **vector** or **vector_components**. You can orient the glyphs using the selected vectors by checking the **Orient** property.
- __dict__
dictionary for instance variables (if defined)
- __weakref__
list of weak references to the object (if defined)
Initialize = aInitialize(self, connection=None, update=True)
- 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
- 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).
