Style¶
-
class
Style(object)¶ The Style object contains all of the rendering visual style attribute of an object. Most simulation objects in Mechanica have a style attribute.
-
color¶ Color4– gets / sets the color of the style. This is actually aColor4object, but we can set it’s color value either as a Color object, or via one of the color strings from Colors, i.e.>>> c = m.Style() >>> c.color = "DeepSkyBlue"
The color string is not case sensitive.
-
visible¶ boolean– gets / sets the visible property. This toggles the visibility of any rendered object.
-
Colors¶
You can construct a color object, (either a Color3 or Color4) using one of the following web color names:
- “AliceBlue”,
- “AntiqueWhite”,
- “Aqua”,
- “Aquamarine”,
- “Azure”,
- “Beige”,
- “Bisque”,
- “Black”,
- “BlanchedAlmond”,

- “Tomato”,
- “Turquoise”,
- “Violet”,
- “Wheat”,
- “White”,
- “WhiteSmoke”,
- “Yellow”,
- “YellowGreen”,
- For example, to make some colors::
>>> m.Color3("red") Vector(1, 0, 0)
>>> m.Color3("MediumSeaGreen") Vector(0.0451862, 0.450786, 0.165132)
>>> m.Color3("CornflowerBlue") Vector(0.127438, 0.300544, 0.846873)
>>> m.Color3("this is total garbage") /usr/local/bin/ipython3:1: Warning: Warning, "this is total garbage" is not a valid color name. #!/usr/local/opt/python/bin/python3.7 Vector(0, 0, 0)
As it’s easy to make a mistake with color names, we simply issue a warnign, instead of an error if the color name can’t be found.

class
Color3¶ The class can store either a floating-point or integer representation of a linear RGB color. Colors in sRGB color space should not beused directly in calculations — they should be converted to linear RGB using fromSrgb(), calculation done on the linear representation and then converted back to sRGB using toSrgb().
You can construct a Color object
-
static
from_srgb(srgb(int))¶ constructs a color from a packed integer, i.e.:
>>> c = m.Color3.from_srgb(0xffffff) >>> print(c) Vector(1, 1, 1)
