vtkPolyDataSilhouette extracts a subset of a polygonal mesh edges to generate an outline (silhouette) of the corresponding 3D object. In addition, this filter can also extracts sharp edges (aka feature angles). In order to use this filter you must specify the a point of view (origin) or a direction (vector). given this direction or origin, a silhouette is generated wherever the surface's normal is orthogonal to the view direction.
To create an instance of class vtkPolyDataSilhouette, simply invoke its constructor as follows
obj = vtkPolyDataSilhouette
The class vtkPolyDataSilhouette has several methods that can be used. They are listed below. Note that the documentation is translated automatically from the VTK sources, and may not be completely intelligible. When in doubt, consult the VTK website. In the methods listed below, obj
is an instance of the vtkPolyDataSilhouette class.
string = obj.GetClassName ()
int = obj.IsA (string name)
vtkPolyDataSilhouette = obj.NewInstance ()
vtkPolyDataSilhouette = obj.SafeDownCast (vtkObject o)
obj.SetEnableFeatureAngle (int )
- Enables or Disables generation of silhouette edges along sharp edges int = obj.GetEnableFeatureAngle ()
- Enables or Disables generation of silhouette edges along sharp edges obj.SetFeatureAngle (double )
- Sets/Gets minimal angle for sharp edges detection. Default is 60 double = obj.GetFeatureAngle ()
- Sets/Gets minimal angle for sharp edges detection. Default is 60 obj.SetBorderEdges (int )
- Enables or Disables generation of border edges. Note: borders exist only in case of non closed surface int = obj.GetBorderEdges ()

- Specify a transformation matrix (via the vtkProp3D::GetMatrix() method) that is used to include the effects of transformation. This ivar only has effect if the direction is set to VTK_DIRECTION_CAMERA_ORIGIN or VTK_DIRECTION_CAMERA_VECTOR, and a camera is specified. Specifying the vtkProp3D is optional. vtkProp3D = obj.GetProp3D ()

- Return MTime also considering the dependent objects: the camera and/or the prop3D.
