Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses.

Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Reimplemented from vtkCell.

◆ GenerateSlidingNormals() [1/2]

static int vtkPolyLine::GenerateSlidingNormals	(	vtkPoints *	,
		vtkCellArray *	,
		vtkDataArray *
	)

static

Given points and lines, compute normals to lines.

These are not true normals, they are "orientation" normals used by classes like vtkTubeFilter that control the rotation around the line. The normals try to stay pointing in the same direction as much as possible (i.e., minimal rotation) w.r.t the firstNormal (computed if nullptr). Always returns 1 (success).

◆ GenerateSlidingNormals() [2/2]

static int vtkPolyLine::GenerateSlidingNormals	(	vtkPoints *	,
		vtkCellArray *	,
		vtkDataArray *	,
		double *	firstNormal
	)

static

Given points and lines, compute normals to lines.

These are not true normals, they are "orientation" normals used by classes like vtkTubeFilter that control the rotation around the line. The normals try to stay pointing in the same direction as much as possible (i.e., minimal rotation) w.r.t the firstNormal (computed if nullptr). Always returns 1 (success).
