sim.createShape

Creates a mesh shape

Synopsis

int objectHandle = sim.createShape(int options, float shadingAngle, list vertices, list indices, 
                                   list normals = None, list textureCoordinates = None, 
                                   string/bytes texture = None, list textureResolution = None)

int objectHandle = sim.createShape(int options, float shadingAngle, float[] vertices, int[] indices, 
                                   float[] normals = nil, float[] textureCoordinates = nil, 
                                   string/buffer texture = nil, int[2] textureResolution = nil)

Arguments

options: Bit-coded:
- if bit0 is set (1), backfaces are culled
- If bit1 is set (2), edges are visible
- If bit2 is set (4), adjacent texture pixels are not interpolated
- If bit3 is set (8), texture is applied as a decal
- If bit4 is set (16), texture is RGBA, otherwise it is RGB
- If bit5 is set (32), texture is horizontally flipped
- If bit6 is set (64), texture is vertically flipped
shadingAngle: shading angle
vertices: array of vertices
indices: array of indices
normals: optional array of normal vectors. Has to be 3 * len(indices) in length
textureCoordinates: optional array of texture coordinates. Has to be 2 * len(indices) in length
texture: optional texture, specified as RGB or RGBA
textureResolution: resolution of the specified texture

Return values

objectHandle: handle of the newly created shape
