Detailed Description

write Stanford PLY file format

vtkPLYWriter writes polygonal data in Stanford University PLY format (see http://graphics.stanford.edu/data/3Dscanrep/). The data can be written in either binary (little or big endian) or ASCII representation.

Warning:
PLY does not handle big endian versus little endian correctly. Also, this class is compiled into VTK only if the PLY library is found during the make process (using CMake).

vtkPLYWriter* vtkPLYWriter::New  )  [static]
 

Created object with default header, ASCII format, and default names for scalars, vectors, tensors, normals, and texture coordinates.

Reimplemented from vtkPolyDataWriter.

virtual const char* vtkPLYWriter::GetClassName  )  [virtual]
 

Reimplemented from vtkPolyDataWriter.

int vtkPLYWriter::IsTypeOf const char *  type  )  [static]
 

Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeRevisionMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkPolyDataWriter.

virtual int vtkPLYWriter::IsA const char *  type  )  [virtual]
 

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeRevisionMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkPolyDataWriter.

vtkPLYWriter* vtkPLYWriter::SafeDownCast vtkObject o  )  [static]
 

Reimplemented from vtkPolyDataWriter.

void vtkPLYWriter::PrintSelf ostream &  os,
vtkIndent  indent
[virtual]
 

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Reimplemented from vtkPolyDataWriter.

virtual void vtkPLYWriter::SetDataByteOrder int   )  [virtual]
 

If the file type is binary, then the user can specify which byte order to use (little versus big endian).

virtual int vtkPLYWriter::GetDataByteOrder  )  [virtual]
 

If the file type is binary, then the user can specify which byte order to use (little versus big endian).

void vtkPLYWriter::SetDataByteOrderToBigEndian  )  [inline]
 

If the file type is binary, then the user can specify which byte order to use (little versus big endian).

void vtkPLYWriter::SetDataByteOrderToLittleEndian  )  [inline]
 

If the file type is binary, then the user can specify which byte order to use (little versus big endian).

virtual void vtkPLYWriter::SetColorMode int   )  [virtual]
 

These methods enable the user to control how to add color into the PLY output file. The default behavior is as follows. The user provides the name of an array and a component number. If the type of the array is three components, unsigned char, then the data is written as three separate "red", "green" and "blue" properties. If the type is not unsigned char, and a lookup table is provided, then the array/component are mapped through the table to generate three separate "red", "green" and "blue" properties in the PLY file. The user can also set the ColorMode to specify a uniform color for the whole part (on a vertex colors, face colors, or both. (Note: vertex colors or cell colors may be written, depending on where the named array is found. If points and cells have the arrays with the same name, then both colors will be written.)
