Interactive graphics using PyVista#

PyPrimeMesh provides support for interactive graphical visualisation using PyVista if this package is installed as a dependency.

This code shows how to display the model using the Graphics class:

>>> from ansys.meshing.prime.graphics import PrimePlotter
>>> import ansys.meshing.prime as prime
>>> display = PrimePlotter()
>>> display.plot(model)
>>> display.show()
../_images/graphics.png

Entire model displayed#

Using the ScopeDefinition class allows you to limit the display to particular regions of the model:

>>> # display the first part only
>>> display = PrimePlotter()
>>> display.plot(
...     model, scope=prime.ScopeDefinition(model, part_expression=model.parts[0].name)
... )
>>> display.show()
../_images/graphics_part.png

Single part displayed#

Selections can be made of displayed objects. If selections in the window are made, information about them can be printed to the console. Selections can also be hidden.

These graphics buttons are provided to help navigate the model and to carry out basic verifications:
