head_size_by#
- anim_traces.head_size_by(p0: str) int #
Specify which variable type to use to size the head of each animated trace segment of the selected particle trace part(s).
Not applicable when head type is none. The head size is determined by multiplying the scale factor (anim_traces: head_scale) by the specified variable (anim_traces: head_variable) value.- Args:
- p0:
‘option’ constant
- p1:
‘option’ scalar
- p2:
‘option’ vector_mag
- p3:
‘option’ vector_xcomp
- p4:
‘option’ vector_ycomp
- p5:
‘option’ vector_zcomp
- Examples:
# # Select the particle trace part(s) to animate # ensight.part.select_begin(2) # # Toggle off the visibility of the selected particle trace part(s), and # animate them. # ensight.part.modify_begin() ensight.part.visible("OFF") ensight.ptrace.animate("ON") ensight.part.modify_end() # # Toggle animated trace segment head type to spheres # and size by velocity magnitude # ensight.anim_traces.head_type("sphere") ensight.anim_traces.head_size_by("vector_mag") ensight.anim_traces.head_variable("Velocity")
- Returns:
zero on success, non-zero on error
