SurfaceExtentTriangulatorInitializer#

class ansys.stk.core.graphics.SurfaceExtentTriangulatorInitializer#: Triangulates an extent on a central body into a triangle mesh and a surrounding boundary. The mesh is commonly visualized with the triangle mesh primitive or surface mesh primitive. The boundary is commonly visualized with the polyline primitive.

Overview#

Methods

`compute_simple`	Compute a triangulation on the specified centralBody for the specified extent. This is equivalent to calling Compute with an altitude of 0 and a granularity of 1 degree.
`compute`	Compute a triangulation on the specified centralBody for the specified extent.
