pyvista.DataSetFilters.reflect#

DataSetFilters.reflect(normal, point=None, inplace=False, transform_all_input_vectors=False, progress_bar=False)[source]#

Reflect a dataset across a plane.

Parameters:
normalarray_like[float]

Normal direction for reflection.

pointarray_like[float]

Point which, along with normal, defines the reflection plane. If not specified, this is the origin.

inplacebool, default: False

When True, modifies the dataset inplace.

transform_all_input_vectorsbool, default: False

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

progress_barbool, default: False

Display a progress bar to indicate progress.

Returns:
pyvista.DataSet

Reflected dataset. Return type matches input.

Examples

>>> from pyvista import examples
>>> mesh = examples.load_airplane()
>>> mesh = mesh.reflect((0, 0, 1), point=(0, 0, -100))
>>> mesh.plot(show_edges=True)
