Basics

• Point cloud
• Mesh
• Curve3D
• Camera view
• Polyscope quantities

Polyscope primitives live in a common 3D referential.

You can edit all the properties of the polyscope object this way:

    auto M = Mesh::Add("bunny.obj");
    M->pc->setSurfaceColor(glm::vec3(1,0,0));
    show << M; //red bunny

Color

setColor(const Color& c)

• Color(r, g, b), or Color("name") to read a parameter or a snippet variable, so the color can be tuned or animated.

Deck format

Every scene item (mesh, cloud, curve, surface, point and object) takes a transform:, and all but object take a color::

- mesh: bunny.obj
  color: "#d08040"          # [r, g, b], "#rrggbb", or a name
  transform:
    pos: [0, 0.5, 0]
    scale: 2                # a number, or [x, y, z]
    axis: [0, 1, 0]         # rotation axis, z by default
    angle: 45               # in degrees

Each field can also be the name of a parameter or a snippet variable, read every frame, so the object can be tuned or animated from the deck. With at: <label>, the transform is applied inside that label, which the gizmo still moves.
