Element Detail

View3D

A View3D element provides the container and the methods to create and display 3D elements. It is contained in a JSXGraph board.

It is advisable to disable panning of the board by setting the board attribute "pan":

  pan: {anabled: fasle}

Otherwise users will not be able to rotate the scene with their fingers on a touch device.

Possible parent array combinations are:
{Array} lower
{Array} dim
{Array} cube: Here, lower is an array of the form [x, y] and dim is an array of the form [w, h]. The arrays [x, y] and [w, h] define the 2D frame into which the 3D cube is (roughly) projected. If the view's azimuth=0 and elevation=0, the 3D view will cover a rectangle with lower left corner [x,y] and side lengths [w, h] of the board. The array 'cube' is of the form [[x1, x2], [y1, y2], [z1, z2]] which determines the coordinate ranges of the 3D cube.

Throws:
{Exception}: If the element cannot be constructed with the given parent objects an exception is thrown.
