CylinderTriangulatorInitializer

class ansys.stk.core.graphics.CylinderTriangulatorInitializer

Triangulates a cylinder. It is recommended to visualize the cylinder using a solid primitive. Although, if only the fill is desired for visualization, a triangle mesh primitive with render back then front faces set to true can be used…

Overview

Methods

create_simple	Compute the triangulation for a cylinder centered at the origin.
