distribution

contour.distribution(p0: str) → int

Specifies the minimum and maximum contour levels when contours are not tied to the variable palette.

Only used when “contour: sync_to_palette OFF”

Args:

p0:

‘distribution’

• linear

• logarithmic

• quadratic

Examples:

#
# Create contours on part 2
#
ensight.part.select_begin(2)
ensight.contour.begin()
ensight.contour.variable("temperature")
ensight.contour.sync_to_palette("OFF")
#
# create 8 contours from 0 to 4.5 using a quadratic distribution
#
ensight.contour.distribution("quadratic")
ensight.contour.range(0.,4.5)
ensight.contour.levels(8)
# 
# turn on labels spaced every 2 units
# using a floating point representation with 2 decimal places
#
ensight.contour.label_visible("ON")
ensight.contour.label_spacing(2.0)
ensight.contour.label_format("floating_point")
ensight.contour.label_decimal_places(2)
ensight.contour.end()
ensight.contour.create()

Returns:

zero on success, non-zero on error
