geom.poly.normal
Syntax
- v := geom.poly.normal(p)
Get the polygon normal. If not planar, this is the average of each vertex
Returns: v - polygon normal vector Arguments: p - polygon pointer
Component Access
f := geom.poly.normal
(p)->x
- f := geom.poly.normal.x(p)
Get the \(x\)-component of the polygon normal. If not planar, this is the average of each vertex
Returns: f - \(x\)-component of the polygon normal vector Arguments: p - polygon pointer
Access other vector components (\(y\), \(z\)) by substituting the component name where \(x\) appears above. See Member Access Operator for information about accessing members from data types using ->
.
Deprecated Component Access
Component access by adding an optional integer in the function arguments (geom.poly.normal(p,<int>)
) is deprecated. It remains available but will not be supported in future versions. See Component Access with Integers in FISH on the Deprecated Commands and FISH page for details.
