Model.trueview

Model.trueview(plane_normal, plane_base, flip_normal=0)

Modifies the view so that a model-defined vector is normal to the screen.

Parameters:

• plane_normal (hwTriple) – The hwTriple object defining the plane normal components. User can also supply a Python list of three doubles.

• plane_base (hwTriple) – The hwTriple object defining the base point components of the plane. User can also supply a Python list of three doubles.

• flip_normal (int) – Reserved for future development

Example

Make the vector ( 1.0 , 0.0 , 0.0 ) normal to the screen and to place the point ( 0.0 , 0.0 , 0.0 ) at the center of the screen

import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()

model.trueview(
    plane_normal = [1.0, 0.0, 0.0], plane_base = [0.0, 0.0, 0.0]
)
