segment_mesh {rayvertex}

Segment 3D Model

Description

Segment 3D Model

Usage

segment_mesh(
  start = c(0, -1, 0),
  end = c(0, 1, 0),
  radius = 0.5,
  direction = NA,
  from_center = TRUE,
  square = FALSE,
  material = material_list()
)

Arguments

start

Default c(0, 0, 0). Base of the segment, specifying x, y, z.

end

Default c(0, 1, 0). End of the segment, specifying x, y, z.

radius

Default 0.5. Radius of the cylinder.

direction

Default NA. Alternative to start and end, specify the direction (via a length-3 vector) of the arrow. Arrow will be centered at start, and the length will be determined by the magnitude of the direction vector.

from_center

Default TRUE. If orientation specified via direction, setting this argument to FALSE will make start specify the bottom of the cone, instead of the middle.

square

Default FALSE. If TRUE, will use a square instead of a circle for the cylinder.

material

Default material_list() (default values). Specify the material of the object.

Value

List describing the mesh.
