vispy.scene.cameras.perspective module

class vispy.scene.cameras.perspective.Base3DRotationCamera(fov=0.0, **kwargs)

Bases: PerspectiveCamera

Base class for TurntableCamera and ArcballCamera

property distance

The user-set distance. If None (default), the distance is internally calculated from the scale factor and fov.

viewbox_mouse_event(event)

The viewbox received a mouse event; update transform accordingly.

Parameters:

eventinstance of Event

The event.

class vispy.scene.cameras.perspective.PerspectiveCamera(fov=60.0, scale_factor=None, center=None, **kwargs)

Bases: BaseCamera

Base class for 3D cameras supporting orthographic and perspective projections.

Parameters:

fovfloat

Field of view. Default 60.0.

scale_factorscalar

A measure for the scale/range of the scene that the camera should show. The exact meaning differs per camera type.

**kwargsdict

Keyword arguments to pass to BaseCamera.

property near_clip_distance

The distance of the near clipping plane from the camera’s position.

property scale_factor

The measure for the scale or range that the camera should cover

For the PanZoomCamera and TurnTableCamera this translates to zooming: set to smaller values to zoom in.

viewbox_mouse_event(event)

The ViewBox received a mouse event; update transform accordingly. Default implementation adjusts scale factor when scolling.

Parameters:

eventinstance of Event

The event.

viewbox_resize_event(event)

The ViewBox resize handler to update the transform

Parameters:

eventinstance of Event

The event.
