CylinderSource

Introduction

vtkCylinderSource creates a polygonal cylinder centered at Center;
The axis of the cylinder is aligned along the global y-axis.
The height and radius of the cylinder can be specified, as well as the number of sides.
It is also possible to control whether the cylinder is open-ended or capped.
If you have the end points of the cylinder, you should use a vtkLineSource followed by a vtkTubeFilter instead of the vtkCylinderSource.

Usage

import vtkCylinderSource from '@kitware/vtk.js/Filters/Sources/CylinderSource';

const cylinder = vtkCylinderSource.newInstance({ height: 2, radius: 1, resolution: 80 });
const polydata = cylinder.getOutputData();

Methods

extend

Method used to decorate a given object (publicAPI+model) with vtkCylinderSource 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 ICylinderSourceInitialValues No (default: {})

getCapping

Get the cap the base of the cylinder with a polygon.

getCenter

Get the center of the cylinder.

getCenterByReference

Get the center of the cylinder.

Get the orientation vector of the cylinder.

getDirectionByReference

Get the orientation vector of the cylinder.

getHeight

Get the height of the cylinder.
