Returns:

pyvista.UnstructuredGrid

UnstructuredGrid containing a single hexahedron.

Examples

Create and plot a single hexahedron.

>>> from pyvista import examples
>>> grid = examples.cells.Hexahedron()
>>> examples.plot_cell(grid)

List the grid’s cells.

>>> grid.cells
array([8, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7])

List the grid’s points.

>>> grid.points
pyvista_ndarray([[0., 0., 0.],
                 [1., 0., 0.],
                 [1., 1., 0.],
