Point Sets

Point sets are datasets with explicit geometry where the point and cell topology are specified and not inferred.

PolyData

Surface geometry: vertices, lines, polygons, and triangles. Extension of vtkPolyData.

PolyData

UnstructuredGrid

Arbitrary combinations of all cell types for volumetric and surface data. Extension of vtkUnstructuredGrid.

UnstructuredGrid

StructuredGrid

Regular lattice of points with connectivity defined by grid ordering. Extension of vtkStructuredGrid.

StructuredGrid

PointSet

A concrete class for storing a set of points with no cell connectivity. Extension of vtkPointSet.

PointSet

Class Reference

PointSet(*args, **kwargs)	Concrete class for storing a set of points.
PolyData(*args, **kwargs)	Dataset consisting of surface geometry (for example, vertices, lines, and polygons).
UnstructuredGrid(*args, **kwargs)	Dataset used for arbitrary combinations of all possible cell types.
StructuredGrid(*args, **kwargs)	Dataset used for topologically regular arrays of data.
ExplicitStructuredGrid(*args, **kwargs)	Extend the functionality of the vtkExplicitStructuredGrid class.

Shared Base Classes

These classes are not used directly. They are documented because they define members that several of the classes above share, so that each of those members is documented once, here, and linked from every class that inherits it.

PointGrid(*args, **kwargs)	Class in common with structured and unstructured grids.
core.pointset._PointSetBase(*args, **kwargs)	PyVista's equivalent of vtkPointSet.
