Sphere

public Sphere()

Constructor. Creates a sphere with radius 1, 16 slices and 8 stacks and center [0,0,0].

Sphere

public Sphere(double radius)

Constructor. Creates a sphere with the specified radius, 16 slices and 8 stacks and center [0,0,0].

Parameters:

radius - sphare radius

Sphere

public Sphere(double radius,
 int numSlices,
 int numStacks)

Constructor. Creates a sphere with the specified radius, number of slices and stacks.

Parameters:

radius - sphare radius

numSlices - number of slices

Sphere

public Sphere(Vector3d center,
 double radius,
 int numSlices,
 int numStacks)

Constructor. Creates a sphere with the specified center, radius, number of slices and stacks.

Parameters:

center - center of the sphere

radius - sphere radius

numSlices - number of slices

numStacks - number of stacks

Method Details

toPolygons

public List<Polygon> toPolygons()

Description copied from interface: Primitive

Returns the polygons that define this primitive. Note: this method computes the polygons each time this method is called. The polygons can be cached inside a CSG object.

Specified by:

toPolygons in interface Primitive

Returns:

a list of polygons that define this primitive

getCenter

public Vector3d getCenter()

Returns:

the center

setCenter

public void setCenter(Vector3d center)

Parameters:

center - the center to set

getRadius

public double getRadius()

Returns:

the radius

setRadius

public void setRadius(double radius)

Parameters:

radius - the radius to set

getNumSlices

public int getNumSlices()

Returns:

the numSlices

setNumSlices

public void setNumSlices(int numSlices)

Parameters:

numSlices - the numSlices to set

getNumStacks

public int getNumStacks()

Returns:

the numStacks

setNumStacks

public void setNumStacks(int numStacks)

Parameters:

numStacks - the numStacks to set

getProperties

public PropertyStorage getProperties()

Description copied from interface: Primitive

Returns the property storage of this primitive.

Specified by:

getProperties in interface Primitive

Returns:

the property storage of this primitive
