2D disk pattern generator.

An elliptical disk can be obtained by adjusting the aspect_ratio of a circular disk; this transforms a circle into an ellipse by stretching the circle in the y (vertical) direction.

The Gaussian fall-off at a point P is an approximation for non-circular disks, since the point on the ellipse closest to P is taken to be the same point as the point on the circle before stretching that was closest to P.

Method Details

[hide private]

function(self, params)

source code

Function to draw a pattern that will then be scaled and rotated.

Instead of implementing __call__ directly, PatternGenerator subclasses will typically implement this helper function used by __call__, because that way they can let __call__ handle the scaling and rotation for them. Alternatively, __call__ itself can be reimplemented entirely by a subclass (e.g. if it does not need to do any scaling or rotation), in which case this function will be ignored.

Overrides: base.patterngenerator.PatternGenerator.function: (inherited documentation)

Class Variable Details

aspect_ratio

Ratio of width to height; size*aspect_ratio gives the width of the disk.

Value:

param.Number(default= 1.0, bounds= (0.0, None), softbounds= (0.0, 2.0), precedence
= 0.31, doc= "Ratio of width to height; size*aspect_ratio gives the width of the d
isk.")

size

Top to bottom height of the disk

Value:

param.Number(default= 0.5, doc= "Top to bottom height of the disk")

smoothing

Width of the Gaussian fall-off

Value:

param.Number(default= 0.1, bounds= (0.0, None), softbounds= (0.0, 0.5), precedence
= 0.61, doc= "Width of the Gaussian fall-off")
