vtkBYUWriter

Section: Visualization Toolkit IO Classes

Usage

vtkBYUWriter writes MOVIE.BYU polygonal files. These files consist of a geometry file (.g), a scalar file (.s), a displacement or vector file (.d), and a 2D texture coordinate file (.t). These files must be specified to the object, the appropriate boolean variables must be true, and data must be available from the input for the files to be written. WARNING: this writer does not currently write triangle strips. Use vtkTriangleFilter to convert strips to triangles.

To create an instance of class vtkBYUWriter, simply invoke its constructor as follows

  obj = vtkBYUWriter

Methods

The class vtkBYUWriter has several methods that can be used. They are listed below.
