SphereOutlineGeometry

new SphereOutlineGeometry

A description of the outline of a sphere.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
`options.radius`	Number	<optional>	1.0	The radius of the sphere.
`options.stackPartitions`	Number	<optional>	10	The count of stacks for the sphere (1 greater than the number of parallel lines).
`options.slicePartitions`	Number	<optional>	8	The count of slices for the sphere (Equal to the number of radial lines).
`options.subdivisions`	Number	<optional>	200	The number of points per line, determining the granularity of the curvature .

Throws:

DeveloperError : options.stackPartitions must be greater than or equal to one.
DeveloperError : options.slicePartitions must be greater than or equal to zero.
DeveloperError : options.subdivisions must be greater than or equal to zero.

Example

var sphere = new Cesium.SphereOutlineGeometry({
  radius : 100.0,
  stackPartitions : 6,
  slicePartitions: 5
});
var geometry = Cesium.SphereOutlineGeometry.createGeometry(sphere);
