.. _silhouette_example:
Silhouette Highlight
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Extract a subset of the edges of a polygonal mesh to generate an outline
(silhouette) of a mesh.
The silhouette may be created using the `silhouette` keyword with
:meth:`~pyvista.Plotter.add_mesh`, or by using
`~pyvista.Plotter.add_silhouette` directly.
"""
from __future__ import annotations
import pyvista
from pyvista import examples
# %%
# Prepare a triangulated ``PolyData``
bunny = examples.download_bunny()
# %%
# Now we can display the silhouette of the mesh and compare the result:
plotter = pyvista.Plotter(shape=(1, 2))
plotter.subplot(0, 0)
plotter.add_mesh(bunny, color='lightblue', silhouette=True)
plotter.add_text('Silhouette')
plotter.view_xy()
plotter.subplot(0, 1)
plotter.add_mesh(bunny, color='lightblue')
plotter.add_text('No silhouette')
plotter.view_xy()
plotter.show()
# %%
# Maybe the default parameters are not enough to really notice the silhouette.
# But by using a ``dict``, it is possible to modify the properties of the
# outline. For example, color and width could be specified like so:
plotter = pyvista.Plotter()
silhouette = dict(
color='red',
line_width=8.0,
)
plotter.add_mesh(bunny, silhouette=silhouette)
plotter.view_xy()
plotter.show()
# %%
# By default, PyVista uses a pretty aggressive decimation level but we might
# want to disable it. It is also possible to display sharp edges:
cylinder = pyvista.Cylinder(
center=(0, 0.04, 0),
direction=(0, 1, 0),
radius=0.15,
height=0.03,
).triangulate()
plotter = pyvista.Plotter(shape=(1, 3))
plotter.subplot(0, 0)
plotter.add_mesh(
cylinder,
color='lightblue',
smooth_shading=True,
silhouette=dict(color='red', line_width=8.0, decimate=None, feature_angle=True),
)
plotter.add_text('Silhouette with sharp edges')
plotter.view_isometric()
plotter.subplot(0, 1)
plotter.add_mesh(
cylinder,
color='lightblue',
smooth_shading=True,
silhouette=dict(color='red', line_width=8.0, decimate=None),
)
plotter.add_text('Silhouette without sharp edges')
plotter.view_isometric()
plotter.subplot(0, 2)
plotter.add_mesh(cylinder, color='lightblue', smooth_shading=True)
plotter.add_text('No silhouette')
plotter.view_isometric()
plotter.show()
# %%
# Here is another example:
dragon = examples.download_dragon()
plotter = pyvista.Plotter()
plotter.set_background('black', top='blue')
plotter.add_mesh(
dragon,
color='green',
specular=1,
smooth_shading=True,
silhouette=dict(line_width=8, color='white'),

plotter.add_mesh(
