Property | Description | Default Value(s) | Restrictions |
Input (Input) |
This property specifies the input to the Glyph filter. This is the dataset to which the glyphs will be applied. | 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): vtkDataSet. |
|
Maximum Number of Points (MaximumNumberOfPoints) |
The value of this property specifies the maximum number of glyphs that should appear in the output dataset if the value of the UseMaskPoints property is 1. (See the UseMaskPoints property.) | 5000 | The value must be greater than or equal to 0. |
Random Mode (RandomMode) |
If the value of this property is 1, then the points to glyph are chosen randomly. Otherwise the point ids chosen are evenly spaced. | 1 | Only the values 0 and 1 are accepted. |
Scalars (SelectInputScalars) |
This property indicates the name of the scalar array on which to operate. The indicated array may be used for scaling the glyphs. (See the SetScaleMode property.) | An array of scalars is required. |
|
Vectors (SelectInputVectors) |
This property indicates the name of the vector array on which to operate. The indicated array may be used for scaling and/or orienting the glyphs. (See the SetScaleMode and SetOrient properties.) | 1 | An array of vectors is required. |
Orient (SetOrient) |
If this property is set to 1, the glyphs will be oriented based on the selected vector array. | 1 | Only the values 0 and 1 are accepted. |
Set Scale Factor (SetScaleFactor) |
The value of this property will be used as a multiplier for scaling the glyphs before adding them to the output. | 1 | The value must be less than the largest dimension of the dataset multiplied by a scale factor of 0.1. The value must lie within the range of the selected data array. The value must lie within the range of the selected data array. |
Scale Mode (SetScaleMode) |
The value of this property specifies how/if the glyphs should be scaled based on the point-centered scalars/vectors in the input dataset. | 1 | The value must be one of the following: scalar (0), vector (1), vector_components (2), off (3). |
Glyph Type (Source) |
This property determines which type of glyph will be placed at the points in the input dataset. | The selected object must be the result of the following: sources (includes readers), glyph_sources. The selected dataset must be one of the following types (or a subclass of one of them): vtkPolyData. The value must be set to one of the following: ArrowSource, ConeSource, CubeSource, CylinderSource, LineSource, SphereSource, GlyphSource2D. |
|
Mask Points (UseMaskPoints) |
If the value of this property is set to 1, limit the maximum number of glyphs to the value indicated by MaximumNumberOfPoints. (See the MaximumNumberOfPoints property.) | 1 | Only the values 0 and 1 are accepted. |
