sandy.primitive.Line3D

Package	sandy.primitive
Class	public class Line3D
Inheritance	Line3D Shape3D ATransformable Node
Implements	Primitive3D

The Line3D class is used for creating a line in 3D space.

The line is created by passing a comma delimited argument list containing points in space as vectors.
A Line3D object can only use the WireFrameMaterial[?]

Example
To create a line between ( x0, y0, z0 ), ( x1, y1, z1 ), ( x2, y2, z3 ), here is the statement:

      var myLine:Line3D = new Line3D( "aLine", new Vector(x0, y0, z0), new Vector( x1, y1, z1 ), new Vector( x2, y2, z3 ));
