PolylineGraphics

new Cesium.PolylineGraphics(options)
DataSources/PolylineGraphics.js 41

Describes a polyline defined as a line strip. The first two positions define a line segment, and each additional position defines a line segment from the previous position. The segments can be linear connected points or great arcs.

Object

optional Object with the following properties:

Name	Type	Default	Description
`positions`	Property		optional A Property specifying the array of `Cartesian3` positions that define the line strip.
`followSurface`	Property	`true`	optional A boolean Property specifying whether the line segments should be great arcs or linearly connected.
`width`	Property	`1.0`	optional A numeric Property specifying the width in pixels.
`show`	Property	`true`	optional A boolean Property specifying the visibility of the polyline.
`material`	MaterialProperty	`Color.WHITE`	optional A Property specifying the material used to draw the polyline.
`granularity`	Property	`Cesium.Math.RADIANS_PER_DEGREE`	optional A numeric Property specifying the angular distance between each latitude and longitude if followSurface is true.
`shadows`	Property	`ShadowMode.DISABLED`	optional An enum Property specifying whether the polyline casts or receives shadows from each light source.
`distanceDisplayCondition`	Property		optional A Property specifying at what distance from the camera that this polyline will be displayed.
