colour.geometry.primitive_cube

colour.geometry.primitive_cube(width=1, height=1, depth=1, width_segments=1, height_segments=1, depth_segments=1, planes=None)[source]

Generates vertices and indices for a filled and outlined cube primitive.

Parameters
  • width (float, optional) – Cube width.

  • height (float, optional) – Cube height.

  • depth (float, optional) – Cube depth.

  • width_segments (int, optional) – Cube segments count along the width.

  • height_segments (float, optional) – Cube segments count along the height.

  • depth_segments (float, optional) – Cube segments count along the depth.

  • planes (array_like, optional) – {‘-x’, ‘+x’, ‘-y’, ‘+y’, ‘-z’, ‘+z’, ‘xy’, ‘xz’, ‘yz’, ‘yx’, ‘zx’, ‘zy’}, Grid primitives to include in the cube construction.

Returns

Tuple of cube vertices, face indices to produce a filled cube and outline indices to produce an outline of the faces of the cube.

Return type

tuple
