Ellipsoid

A closed quadric surface that is a three-dimensional analogue of an ellipse.

Interpolatable: no

Properties

show - Boolean

Whether or not the ellipsoid is shown.

Default: true

radii - EllipsoidRadii - Required

The radii of the ellipsoid.

innerRadii - EllipsoidRadii

The inner radii of the ellipsoid.

minimumClock - Double

The minimum clock angle of the ellipsoid.

Default: 0.0

maximumClock - Double

The maximum clock angle of the ellipsoid.

Default:

minimumCone - Double

The minimum cone angle of the ellipsoid.

Default: 0.0

maximumCone - Double

The maximum cone angle of the ellipsoid.

Default: π

heightReference - HeightReference

The height reference of the ellipsoid, which indicates if the position is relative to terrain or not.

Default: NONE

fill - Boolean

Whether or not the ellipsoid is filled.

Default: true

material - Material

The material to display on the surface of the ellipsoid.

Default: solid white

outline - Boolean

Whether or not the ellipsoid is outlined.

Default: false

outlineColor - Color

The color of the ellipsoid outline.

Default: black

outlineWidth - Double

The width of the ellipsoid outline.

Default: 1.0

stackPartitions - Integer

The number of times to partition the ellipsoid into stacks.

Default: 64

slicePartitions - Integer

The number of times to partition the ellipsoid into radial slices.

Default: 64

subdivisions - Integer

The number of samples per outline ring, determining the granularity of the curvature.

Default: 128

shadows - ShadowMode

Whether or not the ellipsoid casts or receives shadows.

Default: DISABLED

distanceDisplayCondition - DistanceDisplayCondition

The display condition specifying at what distance from the camera this ellipsoid will be displayed.
