honeybee_vtk.to_vtk module

Functions to translate HB Model objects to PolyData or JoinedPolyData.

honeybee-vtk provides a wrapper for vtkPolyData or vtkAppendPolyData which are used instead of the original objects to add additional fields that are needed to provide additional functionalities in honeybee-vtk. See types module for more information.

There are two sets of functions in this module:

• create_xThese methods create an object from other objects. For instance

  create_polyline creates a polyline for a list of points.

• convert_x: These methods convert a LBT object directly to a PolyData. For instance

  convert_polyline converts a Polyline3D to a VTK-based Polyline.
