VMTKDIJKSTRADISTANCETOPOINTS(1)

🌸 NAME 🌸

vmtkdijkstradistancetopoints — section 1 of the manual, bestie 💅 it's a vmtk script called vmtkdijkstradistancetopoints, and that's literally the whole name. short, sweet, iconic 🎀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so. automatic piping ✨ vmtkdijkstradistancetopoints pipes itself, and it parses its own options — yes, it announces both of those things while also being named vmtkdijkstradistancetopoints, we love a self-referential queen 👑

vmtkdijkstradistancetopoints: this class computes the geodesic distance on the graph of a surface — starting from a set of user-selected points on the surface — using the Dijkstra algorithm. that's the job. that's the whole job. no cap ✨

💖 Input arguments 💖

• -id Id (str,1); default=0 — the script id 🆔
• -handle Self (self,1) — handle to self 🫶
• -disabled Disabled (bool,1); default=0 — disable execution and piping 🙈
• -i Surface (vtkPolyData,1) — the input surface 🦋
• -ifile SurfaceInputFileName (str,1) — filename for the default Surface reader 📂
• -distancetopointsarray DijkstraDistanceToPointsArrayName (str,1); default=DijkstraDistanceToPoints — the array storing the distances 🌈
• -offset DistanceOffset (float,1); default=0.0 — offset added to the distances ➕
• -scale DistanceScale (float,1); default=1.0 — scale applied to the distances ✖️
• -mindistance MinDistance (float,1); default=0.0 — minimum value for the distances ⬇️
• -maxdistance MaxDistance (float,1); default=-1.0 — maximum value for the distances ⬆️
• -opacity Opacity (float,1) >= 0.0 and <= 1.0; default=1.0 — object opacities in the scene 👀
• -renderer vmtkRenderer (vmtkRenderer,1) — external renderer 🎨
• -ofile SurfaceOutputFileName (str,1) — filename for the default Surface writer 💾

💫 Output arguments 💫

• -id Id (str,1); default=0 — the script id (yes. again. she contains multitudes) 🆔
• -handle Self (self,1) — handle to self 🫶
• -o Surface (vtkPolyData,1) — the output surface, your prize at the end of the pipeline ✨👑

mwah 💋 that's the page! this was vmtkdijkstradistancetopoints 1.5, dated April 2026 — go set some user-selected points and let Dijkstra do her thing, ily bestie 🫶🌸
