paraview.simple.Ribbon¶

paraview.simple.Ribbon(*input, **params)¶

The Ribbon: filter creates ribbons from the lines in the input data set. This filter is useful for visualizing streamlines. Both the input and output of this filter are polygonal data. The input data set must also have at least one point-centered vector array.

Data Descriptors¶

Angle
The value of this property specifies the offset angle (in degrees) of the ribbon from the line normal.

DefaultNormal
The value of this property specifies the normal to use when the UseDefaultNormal property is set to 1 or the input contains no vector array (SelectInputVectors property).

Input
This property specifies the input to the Ribbon filter.

Scalars
The value of this property indicates the name of the input scalar array used by this filter. The width of the ribbons will be varied based on the values in the specified array if the value of the Width property is 1.

UseDefaultNormal
If this property is set to 0, and the input contains no vector array, then default ribbon normals will be generated (DefaultNormal property); if a vector array has been set (SelectInputVectors property), the ribbon normals will be set from the specified array. If this property is set to 1, the default normal (DefaultNormal property) will be used, regardless of whether the SelectInputVectors property has been set.

VaryWidth
If this property is set to 1, the ribbon width will be scaled according to the scalar array specified in the SelectInputScalars property. Toggle the variation of ribbon width with scalar value.

Vectors
The value of this property indicates the name of the input vector array used by this filter. If the UseDefaultNormal property is set to 0, the normal vectors for the ribbons come from the specified vector array.

Width
If the VaryWidth property is set to 1, the value of this property is the minimum ribbon width. If the VaryWidth property is set to 0, the value of this property is half the width of the ribbon.

Data Descriptors inherited from Proxy¶

__dict__
dictionary for instance variables (if defined)

__weakref__
list of weak references to the object (if defined)

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)
