collada.polylist.Polylist

class collada.polylist.Polylist(sources, material, index, vcounts, xmlnode=None)

Class containing the data COLLADA puts in a <polylist> tag, a collection of polygons. The Polylist object is read-only. To modify a Polylist, create a new instance using collada.geometry.Geometry.createPolylist().

  • If P is an instance of collada.polylist.Polylist, then len(P) returns the number of polygons in the set. P[i] returns the ith polygon in the set.

__init__(sources, material, index, vcounts, xmlnode=None)

A Polylist should not be created manually. Instead, call the collada.geometry.Geometry.createPolylist() method after creating a geometry instance.

Methods

__init__(sources, material, index, vcounts)

A Polylist should not be created manually.

bind(matrix, materialnodebysymbol)

Create a bound polylist from this polylist, transform and material mapping

getInputList()

Gets a collada.source.InputList representing the inputs from a primitive

load(collada, localscope, node)

Load and return a class instance from an XML node.

save()

Put all the data to the internal xml node (xmlnode) so it can be serialized.

triangleset()

This performs a simple triangulation of the polylist using the fanning method.
