    POP Class

    A POP describes a reference to a POP operator, containing points and primitives.


    Members

    compare → bool :

    Get or set Compare Flag.

    dimension → Dimension (Read Only):

    The dimension in this POP.

    maxVertsPerLineStrip → int (Read Only):

    The max number of verts per line strip in this POP.

    pointAttributes → (Read Only):

    The set of point attributes defined in this POP.

    pointAttributesChanged → (Read Only):

    The point attributes changed by this POP.

    primAttributes → (Read Only):

    The set of primitive attributes defined in this POP.

    primAttributesChanged → (Read Only):

    The prim attributes changed by this POP.

    template → bool :

    Get or set Template Flag.

    vertAttributes → (Read Only):

    The set of vertex attributes defined in this POP.

    vertAttributesChanged → (Read Only):

    The vert attributes changed by this POP.

    Methods

    bounds(delayed=False)→ Bounds:

    Returns an object with the bounds, center and size of the POP's geometry.

    • delayed - (Keyword, Optional) If set to True, the download results will be delayed until the next call to bounds(), avoiding stalling the GPU waiting for the result immediately.

    computeBounds(display=False, render=False, delayed=False)→ Bounds:

    Returns an object with the bounds, center and size of the POP's geometry.

    • display - (Keyword, Optional) If set to True, only calculate Bounding Box if POP display flag is set.
    • render - (Keyword, Optional) If set to True, only calculate Bounding Box if POP render flag is set.
    • delayed - (Keyword, Optional) If set to True, the download results will be delayed until the next call to computeBounds(), avoiding stalling the GPU waiting for the result immediately.

    numPoints(delayed=False, max=False)→ int:

    Returns the number of points contained in this POP.

    • delayed - (Keyword, Optional) If set to True, the download results will be delayed until the next call to numPoints(), avoiding stalling the GPU waiting for the result immediately.
    • max - (Keyword, Optional) If set to True, returns the number of allocated points (max number of points). In that case result is always instant, delayed is disregarded.

    numPrims(delayed=False, max=False, primType=None)→ int:

    Returns the number of primitives contained in this POP.

    • delayed - (Keyword, Optional) If set to True, the download results will be delayed until the next call to numPrims(), avoiding stalling the GPU waiting for the result immediately.
    • max - (Keyword, Optional) If set to True, returns the number of allocated primitives (max number of primitives). In that case result is always instant, delayed is disregarded.
    • primType - (Keyword, Optional) If set to triangles, quads, lineStrips, lines or pointPrims, returns the number of primitives for that primitive type only.

    numVerts(delayed=False, max=False, lineStrips=False)→ int:

    Returns the number of vertices contained in this POP.

    • delayed - (Keyword, Optional) If set to True, the download results will be delayed until the next call to numVerts(), avoiding stalling the GPU waiting for the result immediately.
    • max - (Keyword, Optional) If set to True, returns the number of allocated vertices (max number of verts). In that case result is always instant, delayed is disregarded.
    • lineStrips - (Keyword, Optional) If set to true, returns the number of verts for line strips only.

    points(attributeName, startIndex=0, count=-1, delayed=False)→ list:

    Returns the point attribute values as a list.

    • attributeName - The attribute name.
    • startIndex - (Keyword, Optional )The point index to start at (default 0).
    • count - (Keyword, Optional) The number of points to download. A value of -1 fetches all elements from the start index onward.
    • delayed - (Keyword, Optional) If set to True, the download results will be delayed until the next call to vals(), avoiding stalling the GPU waiting for the result immediately.

    prims(attributeName, startIndex=0, count=-1, delayed=False)→ list:

    Returns the primitive attribute values as a list.

    • attributeName - The attribute name.
    • startIndex - (Keyword, Optional )The primitive index to start at (default 0).
    • count - (Keyword, Optional) The number of primitives to download. A value of -1 fetches all elements from the start index onward.
    • delayed - (Keyword, Optional) If set to True, the download results will be delayed until the next call to vals(), avoiding stalling the GPU waiting for the result immediately.

    reallocate()→ None:

    Forces the POP to reallocate its GPU buffers.

    save(filepath, createFolders=False)→ str:

    Save the POP geometry to file system. Multiple file types are supported. Returns the filename and path saved.

    • filepath - (Optional) The path and filename to save to. If not given then a default filename will be used, and the file will be saved in the project.folder folder.
    • createFolders - (Keyword, Optional) If True, it creates the not existent directories provided by the filepath.

    verts(attributeName, startIndex=0, count=-1, delayed=False)→ list:

    Returns the vertex attribute values as a list.

    • attributeName - The attribute name.
    • startIndex - (Keyword, Optional )The vertex index to start at (default 0).
    • count - (Keyword, Optional) The number of vertices to download. A value of -1 fetches all elements from the start index onward.
    • delayed - (Keyword, Optional) If set to True, the download results will be delayed until the next call to vals(), avoiding stalling the GPU waiting for the result immediately.
