paraview.simple.Clean

paraview.simple.Clean(*input, **params)
The Clean filter

takes polygonal data as input and generates polygonal data as output. This filter can merge duplicate points, remove unused points, and transform degenerate cells into their appropriate forms (e.g., a triangle is converted into a line if two of its points are merged).

Data Descriptors

AbsoluteTolerance

If merging nearby points (see PointMerging property) and using absolute tolerance (see ToleranceIsAbsolute property), this property specifies the tolerance for performing merging in the spatial units of the input data set.

ConvertLinesToPoints

If this property is set to 1, degenerate lines (a “line” whose endpoints are at the same spatial location) will be converted to points.

ConvertPolysToLines

If this property is set to 1, degenerate polygons (a “polygon” with only two distinct point coordinates) will be converted to lines.

ConvertStripsToPolys

If this property is set to 1, degenerate triangle strips (a triangle “strip” containing only one triangle) will be converted to triangles.

Input

Set the input to the Clean filter.

PieceInvariant

If this property is set to 1, the whole data set will be processed at once so that cleaning the data set always produces the same results. If it is set to 0, the data set can be processed one piece at a time, so it is not necessary for the entire data set to fit into memory; however the results are not guaranteed to be the same as they would be if the Piece invariant option was on. Setting this option to 0 may produce seams in the output dataset when ParaView is run in parallel.

PointMerging

If this property is set to 1, then points will be merged if they are within the specified Tolerance or AbsoluteTolerance (see the Tolerance and AbsoluteTolerance properties), depending on the value of the ToleranceIsAbsolute property. (See the ToleranceIsAbsolute property.) If this property is set to 0, points will not be merged.

Tolerance

If merging nearby points (see PointMerging property) and not using absolute tolerance (see ToleranceIsAbsolute property), this property specifies the tolerance for performing merging as a fraction of the length of the diagonal of the bounding box of the input data set.

ToleranceIsAbsolute

This property determines whether to use absolute or relative (a percentage of the bounding box) tolerance when performing point merging.

Methods

Initialize = aInitialize(self, connection=None, update=True)

Methods inherited from SourceProxy

FileNameChanged(self)

Called when the filename of a source proxy is changed.

GetCellDataInformation(self)

Returns the associated cell data information.

GetDataInformation(self, idx=None)

This method returns a DataInformation wrapper around a vtkPVDataInformation

GetFieldDataInformation(self)

Returns the associated cell data information.

GetPointDataInformation(self)

Returns the associated point data information.

UpdatePipeline(self, time=None)

This method updates the server-side VTK pipeline and the associated data information. Make sure to update a source to validate the output meta-data.

UpdatePipelineInformation(self)

This method updates the meta-data of the server-side VTK pipeline and the associated information properties

__getitem__(self, idx)

Given a slice, int or string, returns the corresponding output port

Methods inherited from Proxy

GetProperty(self, name)

Given a property name, returns the property object.

GetPropertyValue(self, name)

Returns a scalar for properties with 1 elements, the property itself for vectors.

InitializeFromProxy(self, aProxy, update=True)

Constructor. Assigns proxy to self.SMProxy, updates the server object as well as register the proxy in _pyproxies dictionary.

ListProperties(self)

Returns a list of all property names on this proxy.

SetPropertyWithName(self, pname, arg)

Generic method for setting the value of a property.

__del__(self)

Destructor. Cleans up all observers as well as remove the proxy from the _pyproxies dictionary

__eq__(self, other)

Returns true if the underlying SMProxies are the same.

__getattr__(self, name)

With the exception of a few overloaded methods, returns the SMProxy method

__hash__(self)

Return hash(self).

__init__(self, **args)

Default constructor. It can be used to initialize properties by passing keyword arguments where the key is the name of the property. In addition registrationGroup and registrationName (optional) can be specified (as keyword arguments) to automatically register the proxy with the proxy manager.

__iter__(self)

Creates an iterator for the properties.

__ne__(self, other)

Returns false if the underlying SMProxies are the same.

__setattr__(self, name, value)

Implement setattr(self, name, value).

add_attribute(self, name, value)
