TriangleFilter

Introduction

vtkTriangleFilter - A filter that generates triangles for larger cells

vtkTriangleFilter is a filter that converts cells wih more than 3 points into
triangles.

Methods

extend

Method used to decorate a given object (publicAPI+model) with vtkTriangleFilter characteristics.

Argument Type Required Description
publicAPI Yes object on which methods will be bounds (public)
model Yes object on which data structure will be bounds (protected)
initialValues ITriangleFilterInitialValues No (default: {})

getErrorCount

Get the desired precision for the output types.

newInstance

Method used to create a new instance of vtkTriangleFilter

Argument Type Required Description
initialValues ITriangleFilterInitialValues No for pre-setting some of its content

requestData

Argument Type Required Description
inData Yes
outData Yes
