RingGeometry

A class for generating a two-dimensional ring geometry.

Code Example

const geometry = new v3d.RingGeometry(1, 5, 32);
    const material = new v3d.MeshBasicMaterial({ color: 0xffff00, side: v3d.DoubleSide });
    const mesh = new v3d.Mesh(geometry, material);
    app.scene.add(mesh);

Constructor

RingGeometry(innerRadius : Float, outerRadius : Float, thetaSegments : Integer, phiSegments : Integer, thetaStart : Float, thetaLength : Float)

innerRadius — default is 0.5.
outerRadius — default is 1.
thetaSegments — number of segments. A higher number means the ring will be more round. Minimum is 3. Default is 32.
phiSegments — minimum is 1. Default is 1.
thetaStart — starting angle. Default is 0.
thetaLength — central angle. Default is 2π (2*Math.PI).

Procedural geometry is fun. However, in real life applications this feature is rarely needed. It would be more efficient do design rings in the preferred modelling suite and export/load to Verge3D via glTF.

Properties

See the base BufferGeometry class for common properties.

# .parameters : Object

An object with a property for each of the constructor parameters. Any modification after instantiation does not change the geometry.

Methods

See the base BufferGeometry class for common methods.
