mia-3dtransform2vf(1)

💖 mia-3dtransform2vf — bestie edition 💖

okay so this is a page from the General Commands Manual, and it's all about mia-3dtransform2vf, a lil tool that lives in the MIA family and has exactly one job: turning a transformation into a vector field. iconic behavior honestly.

---

✨ NAME ✨

mia-3dtransform2vf — create a Vectorfield from a transformation. that's it, that's the whole personality. 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

mia-3dtransform2vf -i <in-file> -o <out-file> [options]

---

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

so mia-3dtransform2vf creates a 3D vector field from a given transformation. the output vector field will have the dimensions as given in the transformation description. it's giving "read the vibes of the input, mirror them in the output." 💅

---

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• -i, --in-file=(input, required); io — the input transformation. required, so like… you gotta give it one bestie. For supported file types see PLUGINS:3dtransform/io ✨
• -o, --out-file=(required, output); io — the output vector field. also required. no input no output no slay. For supported file types see PLUGINS:3dvf/io 🌈

🫶 Help & Info

• -V, --verbose=warning — verbosity of output; prints messages of the given level and higher priorities. supported priorities, starting at the lowest level, are:
  • trace ‐ Function call trace
  • debug ‐ Debug output
  • info ‐ Low level messages
  • message ‐ Normal messages
  • warning ‐ Warnings
  • fail ‐ Report test failures
  • error ‐ Report errors
  • fatal ‐ Report only fatal errors
• --copyright — print copyright information 📜
• -h, --help — print this help 🙋
• -?, --usage — print a short help
• --version — print the version number and exit ✌️

🧚 Processing

• --threads=-1 — maximum number of threads to use for processing. this number should be lower or equal to the number of logical processor cores in the machine. (-1: automatic estimation). so -1 is basically the "you figure it out" option and honestly? respectful. 💜

🌟 PLUGINS: 3dtransform/io 🌟

• bbs — Binary (non-portable) serialized IO of 3D transformations

Recognized file extensions: .bbs

• datapool — Virtual IO to and from the internal data pool

Recognized file extensions: .@

• vista — Vista storage of 3D transformations

Recognized file extensions: .v, .v3dt

• xml — XML serialized IO of 3D transformations

Recognized file extensions: .x3dt

---

⭐ PLUGINS: 3dvf/io ⭐

• cvista — obsolete 3d vector field io plugin for range compressed vista (saving not supported)

Recognized file extensions: .CVF, .cvf

Supported element types:

• floating point 32 bit

• datapool — Virtual IO to and from the internal data pool

Recognized file extensions: .@

• vista — a 3d vector field io plugin for vista

Recognized file extensions: .V, .VF, .v, .vf

Supported element types:

• floating point 32 bit

• vtk — 3D Vector field in- and output (experimental). No attributes are stored or read.

Recognized file extensions: .VTK, .VTKVF, .vtk, .vtkvf

Supported element types:

• floating point 32 bit

heads up bestie: the vtk one is labeled experimental, and it stores and reads no attributes. lowkey giving "works but don't make it your whole personality." 😭

💫 EXAMPLE 💫

Transform the input transformation trans.v3df to a vector field field.vtk.

mia-3dtransform2vf -i trans.v3df   -o field.vtk

that's the whole page, bestie — this one's from the USER COMMANDS section, version v2.4.7, and it's the mia-3dtransform2vf(1) page. go forth and make vector fields, you absolute main character 👑✨
