pyvista.Polygon

Polygon(

center: VectorLike[float] = (0.0, 0.0, 0.0),

radius: float = 1.0,

normal: VectorLike[float] = (0.0, 0.0, 1.0),

n_sides: int = 6,

fill: bool = True,

) → PolyData

Create a polygon.

Parameters:

centersequence[float], default: (0.0, 0.0, 0.0)

Center in [x, y, z]. Central axis of the polygon passes through this point.

radiusfloat, default: 1.0

The radius of the polygon.

normalsequence[float], default: (0.0, 0.0, 1.0)

Direction vector in [x, y, z]. Orientation vector of the polygon.

n_sidesint, default: 6

Number of sides of the polygon.

fillbool, default: True

Enable or disable producing filled polygons.

Returns:

pyvista.PolyData

Mesh of the polygon.

Examples

Create an 8 sided polygon.

>>> import pyvista as pv
>>> mesh = pv.Polygon(n_sides=8)
>>> mesh.plot(show_edges=True, line_width=5)
