Methods

static Cesium.CylinderOutlineGeometry.createGeometry(cylinderGeometry) → Geometry|undefined
engine/Source/Core/CylinderOutlineGeometry.js 177

Computes the geometric representation of an outline of a cylinder, including its vertices, indices, and a bounding sphere.
Name Type Description
cylinderGeometry CylinderOutlineGeometry A description of the cylinder outline.
Returns:
The computed vertices and indices.

static Cesium.CylinderOutlineGeometry.pack(value, array, startingIndex) → Array.<Number>
engine/Source/Core/CylinderOutlineGeometry.js 100

Stores the provided instance into the provided array.
Name Type Default Description
value CylinderOutlineGeometry The value to pack.
array Array.<Number> The array to pack into.
startingIndex Number 0 optional The index into the array at which to start packing the elements.
Returns:
The array that was packed into

static Cesium.CylinderOutlineGeometry.unpack(array, startingIndex, result) → CylinderOutlineGeometry
engine/Source/Core/CylinderOutlineGeometry.js 135

Retrieves an instance from a packed array.
Name Type Default Description
array Array.<Number> The packed array.
startingIndex Number 0 optional The starting index of the element to be unpacked.
result CylinderOutlineGeometry optional The object into which to store the result.
Returns:
The modified result parameter or a new CylinderOutlineGeometry instance if one was not provided.
