plot_curvature

PolyDataFilters.plot_curvature(curv_type='mean', **kwargs)

Plot the curvature.

Parameters

curv_typestr, optional

One of the following strings indicating curvature type:

• 'Mean'

• 'Gaussian'

• 'Maximum'

• 'Minimum'

**kwargsdict, optional

See pyvista.plot().

Returns

pyvista.CameraPosition

List of camera position, focal point, and view up. Returned when return_cpos is True.

Examples

Plot the Gaussian curvature of an example mesh. Override the default scalar bar range as the mesh edges report high curvature.

>>> from pyvista import examples
>>> hills = examples.load_random_hills()
>>> hills.plot_curvature(curv_type='gaussian', smooth_shading=True,
