ladybug_display.geometry3d.line module

A line segment that can be displayed in 3D space.

class ladybug_display.geometry3d.line.DisplayLineSegment3D(geometry, color=None, line_width=Default, line_type='Continuous')[source]

Bases: _LineCurveBase3D

A single line segment in 3D space with display properties.

Parameters:

  • geometry – A ladybug-geometry LineSegment3D object.

  • color – A ladybug Color object. If None, a default black color will be used. (Default: None).

  • line_width – Number for line width in pixels (for the screen). For print, this will be converted a value in millimeters or inches assuming standard web resolution (72 pixels per inch). This can also be the Default object to indicate that the default settings of the interface should be used (typically one pixel).

  • line_type –

    Get or set text to indicate the type of line to display. Choose from the following. (Default: “Continuous”)

    • Continuous

    • Dashed

    • Dotted

    • DashDot

Properties:

  • geometry

  • color

  • line_width

  • line_type

  • p

  • v

  • p1

  • p2

ToString()
duplicate()

Get a copy of this object.

classmethod from_dict(data)[source]

Initialize a DisplayLineSegment3D from a dictionary.

Parameters:

data – A dictionary representation of an DisplayLineSegment3D object.

move(moving_vec)

Move this geometry along a vector.

Parameters:

moving_vec – A ladybug_geometry Vector with the direction and distance to move the geometry.

reflect(plane)

Reflect this geometry across a plane.

Parameters:

plane – A ladybug_geometry Plane across which the object will be reflected.

rotate(axis, angle, origin)

Rotate this geometry by a certain angle around an axis and origin.

Parameters:

  • axis – A ladybug_geometry Vector3D axis representing the axis of rotation.

  • angle – An angle for rotation in degrees.

  • origin – A ladybug_geometry Point3D for the origin around which the object will be rotated.

rotate_xy(angle, origin)

Rotate this geometry counterclockwise in the world XY plane by an angle.

Parameters:

  • angle – An angle in degrees.

  • origin – A ladybug_geometry Point3D for the origin around which the object will be rotated.

scale(factor, origin=None)

Scale this geometry by a factor from an origin point.

Parameters:

  • factor – A number representing how much the object should be scaled.

  • origin – A ladybug_geometry Point representing the origin from which to scale. If None, it will be scaled from the World origin.

to_dict()[source]

Return DisplayLineSegment3D as a dictionary.

property color

Get or set a color for this object.

property geometry

Get a ladybug_geometry object.

property length

Get a number for the length of the line segment.

property line_type

Get or set text to indicate the type of line to display.

property line_width

Get or set a number to indicate the width of the line in pixels.

property p

Get a Point3D representing the base of the line segment.

property p1

Get a Point3D representing the first point of the line segment.

property p2

Get a Point3D representing the second point of the line segment.

property user_data

Get or set an optional dictionary for additional meta data for this object.

This will be None until it has been set. All keys and values of this dictionary should be of a standard Python type to ensure correct serialization of the object to/from JSON (eg. str, float, int, list, dict)

property v

Get a Vector3D representing the direction of the line segment.
