Capping (Capping) |
The value of this property indicates whether to cap the ends of the swept surface. Capping works by placing a copy of the input dataset on either end of the swept surface, so it behaves properly if the input is a 2D surface composed of filled polygons. If the input dataset is a closed solid (e.g., a sphere), then if capping is on (i.e., this property is set to 1), two copies of the data set will be displayed on output (the second translated from the first one along the specified vector). If instead capping is off (i.e., this property is set to 0), then an input closed solid will produce no output. | 1 | Only the values 0 and 1 are accepted. |
Input (Input) |
This property specifies the input to the Linear Extrusion filter. | The selected object must be the result of the following: sources (includes readers), filters. The selected dataset must be one of the following types (or a subclass of one of them): vtkPolyData. |

Piece Invariant (PieceInvariant) |
The value of this property determines whether the output will be the same regardless of the number of processors used to compute the result. The difference is whether there are internal polygonal faces on the processor boundaries. A value of 1 will keep the results the same; a value of 0 will allow internal faces on processor boundaries. | 0 | Only the values 0 and 1 are accepted. |
Scale Factor (ScaleFactor) |
The value of this property determines the distance along the vector the dataset will be translated. (A scale factor of 0.5 will move the dataset half the length of the vector, and a scale factor of 2 will move it twice the vector's length.) | 1 | |
Vector (Vector) |
The value of this property indicates the X, Y, and Z components of the vector along which to sweep the input dataset. | 0 0 1 |
