Description
Plane generates a 3D plane of variable size that can be transformed in three dimensions. The plane generated is a simple geometry element suitable for probing fields with modules such as probe and glyph or as a sampling or slicing object input to macros such as streamlines, advector, and cut. The plane generated is not intended for constructing complex geometry objects.
Input
ui_parent
A port mean to be connected to a user interface object that will contain the macro's widgets. By default, it is connected to the default user interface object in the application in which the macro is instanced. (This default connection is not drawn.)
Parameters
x-dimension
y-dimension
Integer sliders to set the X and Y dimension of the plane. The default for both is 8. Their range is from 2 to 100.
Transformation Editor
An XformEditor that controls the position, orientation, and scale of the object in 3D space.
Output Port
out_fld
The output consists of a Plane_Mesh whose coordinates are the four corners of the plane.
out_obj
This is a renderable version of the output field.
