SimplePolylineGeometry

new SimplePolylineGeometry

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	Default	Description
`options.positions`	Array			An array of Cartesian3 defining the positions in the polyline as a line strip.
`options.colors`	Array	<optional>	undefined	An Array of Color defining the per vertex or per segment colors.
`options.colorsPerVertex`	Boolean	<optional>	false	A boolean that determines whether the colors will be flat across each segment of the line or interpolated across the vertices.

Throws:

DeveloperError : At least two positions are required.
DeveloperError : colors has an invalid length.

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);

Methods

<static> createGeometry

Computes the geometric representation of a simple polyline, including its vertices, indices, and a bounding sphere.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`simplePolylineGeometry`	SimplePolylineGeometry	A description of the polyline.

Returns:

Geometry The computed vertices and indices.
