new Cesium.EllipsoidGeometryUpdater(entity, scene)

A GeometryUpdater for ellipsoids. Clients do not normally create this class directly, but instead rely on DataSourceDisplay.
Name Type Description
entity Entity The entity containing the geometry to be visualized.
scene Scene The scene where visualization is taking place.

Methods

createFillGeometryInstance(time, skipModelMatrix, modelMatrixResult)GeometryInstance

Creates the geometry instance which represents the fill of the geometry.
Name Type Default Description
time JulianDate The time to use when retrieving initial attribute values.
skipModelMatrix Boolean false optional Whether to compute a model matrix for the geometry instance
modelMatrixResult Matrix4 optional Used to store the result of the model matrix calculation
Returns:
The geometry instance representing the filled portion of the geometry.
Throws:
  • DeveloperError : This instance does not represent a filled geometry.

createOutlineGeometryInstance(time, skipModelMatrix, modelMatrixResult)GeometryInstance
