SimplePolylineGeometry

SimplePolylineGeometry

new

A description of a polyline modeled as a line strip; the first two positions define a line segment, and each additional position defines a line segment from the previous position.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
options.positions Array <optional>
 An array of Cartesian3 defining the positions in the polyline as a line strip.
Throws:
DeveloperError : At least two positions are required.
Example
// A polyline with two connected line segments
var polyline = new SimplePolylineGeometry({
  positions : ellipsoid.cartographicArrayToCartesianArray([
    Cartographic.fromDegrees(0.0, 0.0),
    Cartographic.fromDegrees(5.0, 0.0),
    Cartographic.fromDegrees(5.0, 5.0)
  ])
});
var geometry = SimplePolylineGeometry.createGeometry(polyline);
