pygfx.materials.MeshNormalLinesMaterial

class pygfx.materials.MeshNormalLinesMaterial(line_length=1.0, **kwargs)

Bases: MeshAbstractMaterial

Render surface normals as lines.

A material that shows surface normals as simple lines. The lines stick out from the vertices at the front faces by default.

Parameters:
  • line_length (float) – The length of the lines that indicate the normals, in local space. Set this to a negative value to make the lines stick out from the back faces.

  • kwargs (Any) – Additional kwargs will be passed to the base class.

property line_length
