pyvista.DataSet.flip_x

DataSet.flip_x(

point: VectorLike[float] | None = None,

transform_all_input_vectors: bool = False,

inplace: bool = False,

)

Flip mesh about the x-axis.

Note

See also the notes at transform() which is used by this filter under the hood.

Parameters:

pointsequence[float], optional

Point to rotate about. Defaults to center of mesh at center.

transform_all_input_vectorsbool, default: False

When True, all input vectors are transformed. Otherwise, only the points, normals and active vectors are transformed.

inplacebool, default: False

Updates mesh in-place.

Returns:

pyvista.DataSet

Flipped dataset.

Concatenate a reflection about the x-axis with a transformation.

Examples

>>> import pyvista as pv
>>> from pyvista import examples
>>> pl = pv.Plotter(shape=(1, 2))
>>> pl.subplot(0, 0)
>>> pl.show_axes()
>>> mesh1 = examples.download_teapot()
>>> _ = pl.add_mesh(mesh1)
>>> pl.subplot(0, 1)
>>> pl.show_axes()
>>> mesh2 = mesh1.flip_x(inplace=False)
>>> _ = pl.add_mesh(mesh2)
>>> pl.show(cpos="xy")
