Detailed Description

The QSphereGeometry class is most commonly used internally by the QSphereMesh but can also be used in custom QGeometryRenderer subclasses.

Note

Properties can be used directly when from __feature__ import true_property is used or via accessor functions otherwise.

property generateTangentsᅟ: bool

Holds the value of the automatic tangent vectors generation flag. Tangent vectors are orthogonal to normal vectors.

Access functions:
property indexAttributeᅟ: QAttribute

Holds the geometry index attribute.

Access functions:
property normalAttributeᅟ: QAttribute

Holds the geometry normal attribute.

Access functions:
property positionAttributeᅟ: QAttribute

Holds the geometry position attribute.

Access functions:
property radiusᅟ: float

Holds the radius of the sphere.

Access functions:
property ringsᅟ: int

Holds the number of rings in the sphere.

Access functions:
property slicesᅟ: int

Holds the number of slices in the sphere.

Access functions:
property tangentAttributeᅟ: QAttribute

Holds the geometry tangent attribute.

Access functions:
property texCoordAttributeᅟ: QAttribute

Holds the geometry texture coordinate attribute.

Access functions:
__init__([parent=None])
Parameters:

parentQNode

Constructs a new QSphereGeometry with parent.
