TorusKnotGeometry

Creates a torus knot, the particular shape of which is defined by a pair of coprime integers, p and q. If p and q are not coprime, the result will be a torus link.

Example

var geometry = new v3d.TorusKnotGeometry(10, 3, 100, 16);
    var material = new v3d.MeshBasicMaterial({ color: 0xffff00 });
    var torusKnot = new v3d.Mesh(geometry, material);
    scene.add(torusKnot);

Constructor

TorusKnotGeometry(radius : Float, tube : Float, tubularSegments : Integer, radialSegments : Integer, p : Integer, q : Integer)

radius - Radius of the torus. Default is 1.
tube — Radius of the tube. Default is 0.4.
tubularSegments — Default is 64.
radialSegments — Default is 8.
p — This value determines, how many times the geometry winds around its axis of rotational symmetry. Default is 2.
q — This value determines, how many times the geometry winds around a circle in the interior of the torus. Default is 3.

Properties

See the base Geometry class for common properties.

.parameters

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

Methods
