Plane#

Plane(center=(0, 0, 0), direction=(0, 0, 1), i_size=1, j_size=1, i_resolution=10, j_resolution=10)[source]#

Create a plane.

Parameters:
centerlist or tuple or np.ndarray, default: (0, 0, 0)

Location of the centroid in [x, y, z].

directionlist or tuple or np.ndarray, default: (0, 0, 1)

Direction of the plane’s normal in [x, y, z].

i_sizefloat, default: 1.0

Size of the plane in the i direction.

j_sizefloat, default: 1.0

Size of the plane in the j direction.

i_resolutionint, default: 10

Number of points on the plane in the i direction.

j_resolutionint, default: 10

Number of points on the plane in the j direction.

Returns:
pyvista.PolyData

Plane mesh.

Examples

Create a default plane.

>>> import pyvista
>>> mesh = pyvista.Plane()
>>> mesh.point_data.clear()
>>> mesh.plot(show_edges=True)
