property _BaseMapper.scalar_map_mode: str

Return or set the scalar map mode.

Examples

Show that the scalar map mode is set to 'point' when setting the active scalars to point data.

>>> import pyvista as pv
>>> dataset = pv.MultiBlock(
...     [pv.Cube(), pv.Sphere(center=(0, 0, 1))]
... )
>>> dataset[0].point_data['data'] = dataset[0].points[:, 2]
>>> dataset[1].point_data['data'] = dataset[1].points[:, 2]
>>> pl = pv.Plotter()
>>> actor, mapper = pl.add_composite(
...     dataset, scalars='data', show_scalar_bar=False
... )
>>> mapper.scalar_map_mode
'point'
>>> pl.close()
