TeapotGeometry

A class for generating Utah teapot geometry.

Code Example


    const geometry = new v3d.TeapotGeometry(2);
    const material = v3d.MaterialUtils.createStandardPBRMaterial('blender', {
        color: 'gold',
        roughness: 0.2,
        metalness: 1
    });
    const teapot = new v3d.Mesh(geometry, material);
    app.scene.add(teapot);

Constructor

TeapotGeometry(size : Float, segments : Integer, bottom : Boolean, lid : Boolean, body : Float, fitLid : Boolean, blinn : Boolean)

size — radius of the teapot. Default is 1.
segments — number of segmented used to generate teapot. Default is 10.
bottom — generate bottom geometry. Default is true.
lid — generate lid geometry. Default is true.
body — generate body geometry. Default is true.
fitLid — stretch lid a bit so no gap left. Default is false.
blinn — Jim Blinn vertical scaling. With this scaling applied the teapot will look nicer. Default is true.

Procedural geometry is fun. However, in real life applications this feature is rarely needed. It would be more efficient do design teapots in the preferred modelling suite and export/load to Verge3D via glTF.

Properties

See the base BufferGeometry class for common properties.

# .parameters : Object

An object with a property for each of the constructor parameters. Any modification after instantiation does not change the geometry.

Methods
