Detailed Description

clip polygonal data with user-specified implicit function or input scalar data

vtkClipPolyData is a filter that clips polygonal data using either any subclass of vtkImplicitFunction, or the input scalar data. Clipping means that it actually "cuts" through the cells of the dataset, returning everything inside of the specified implicit function (or greater than the scalar value) including "pieces" of a cell. (Compare this with vtkExtractGeometry, which pulls out entire, uncut cells.) The output of this filter is polygonal data.

To use this filter, you must decide if you will be clipping with an implicit function, or whether you will be using the input scalar data. If you want to clip with an implicit function, you must: 1) define an implicit function 2) set it with the SetClipFunction method 3) apply the GenerateClipScalarsOn method If a ClipFunction is not specified, or GenerateClipScalars is off (the default), then the input's scalar data will be used to clip the polydata.

You can also specify a scalar value, which is used to decide what is inside and outside of the implicit function. You can also reverse the sense of what inside/outside is by setting the InsideOut instance variable. (The cutting algorithm proceeds by computing an implicit function value or using the input scalar data for each point in the dataset. This is compared to the scalar value to determine inside/outside.)

This filter can be configured to compute a second output. The second output is the polygonal data that is clipped away. Set the GenerateClippedData boolean on if you wish to access this output data.

Warning
In order to cut all types of cells in polygonal data, vtkClipPolyData triangulates some cells, and then cuts the resulting simplices (i.e., points, lines, and triangles). This means that the resulting output may consist of different cell types than the input data.

virtual const char* vtkClipPolyData::GetClassName ( )
virtual

Reimplemented from vtkPolyDataAlgorithm.

static int vtkClipPolyData::IsTypeOf ( const char *  name)
static

Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkPolyDataAlgorithm.

virtual int vtkClipPolyData::IsA ( const char *  name)
virtual

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

static

Reimplemented from vtkPolyDataAlgorithm.

void vtkClipPolyData::PrintSelf ( ostream &  os,
vtkIndent  indent 
)
virtual

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 vtkPolyDataAlgorithm.

static vtkClipPolyData* vtkClipPolyData::New ( )
static

Construct with user-specified implicit function; InsideOut turned off; value set to 0.0; and generate clip scalars turned off.

Reimplemented from vtkPolyDataAlgorithm.

virtual void vtkClipPolyData::SetValue ( double  )
virtual

Set the clipping value of the implicit function (if clipping with implicit function) or scalar value (if clipping with scalars). The default value is 0.0.

virtual double vtkClipPolyData::GetValue ( )

Set the clipping value of the implicit function (if clipping with implicit function) or scalar value (if clipping with scalars). The default value is 0.0.

virtual void vtkClipPolyData::SetInsideOut ( int  )
virtual

Set/Get the InsideOut flag. When off, a vertex is considered inside the implicit function if its value is greater than the Value ivar. When InsideOutside is turned on, a vertex is considered inside the implicit function if its implicit function value is less than or equal to the Value ivar. InsideOut is off by default.

virtual int vtkClipPolyData::GetInsideOut ( )
virtual

Set/Get the InsideOut flag. When off, a vertex is considered inside the implicit function if its value is greater than the Value ivar. When InsideOutside is turned on, a vertex is considered inside the implicit function if its implicit function value is less than or equal to the Value ivar. InsideOut is off by default.

virtual void vtkClipPolyData::InsideOutOn ( )
virtual

Set/Get the InsideOut flag. When off, a vertex is considered inside the implicit function if its value is greater than the Value ivar. When InsideOutside is turned on, a vertex is considered inside the implicit function if its implicit function value is less than or equal to the Value ivar. InsideOut is off by default.

virtual void vtkClipPolyData::InsideOutOff ( )
virtual

Set/Get the InsideOut flag. When off, a vertex is considered inside the implicit function if its value is greater than the Value ivar. When InsideOutside is turned on, a vertex is considered inside the implicit function if its implicit function value is less than or equal to the Value ivar. InsideOut is off by default.

virtual void vtkClipPolyData::SetClipFunction ( vtkImplicitFunction )

Specify the implicit function with which to perform the clipping. If you do not define an implicit function, then the input scalar data will be used for clipping.

virtual

Specify the implicit function with which to perform the clipping. If you do not define an implicit function, then the input scalar data will be used for clipping.

virtual void vtkClipPolyData::SetGenerateClipScalars ( int  )

If this flag is enabled, then the output scalar values will be interpolated from the implicit function values, and not the input scalar data. If you enable this flag but do not provide an implicit function an error will be reported.
