OldMultiCamera

Qualified name: manim.camera.mapping\_camera.OldMultiCamera

class OldMultiCamera(*cameras_with_start_positions, **kwargs)

Bases: Camera

• Parameters: cameras_with_start_positions (tuple) – Tuples of (Camera, (start_y, start_x)) indicating camera and its pixel offset on the final frame.

Methods

capture_mobjects	Capture mobjects by printing them on pixel_array.
init_background	Initialize the background.
set_background	Sets the background to the passed pixel_array after converting to valid RGB values.
set_pixel_array	Sets the pixel array of the camera to the passed pixel array.

Attributes

background_color
background_opacity

capture_mobjects(mobjects, **kwargs)

Capture mobjects by printing them on pixel_array.

This is the essential function that converts the contents of a Scene into an array, which is then converted to an image or video.

• Parameters:
  • mobjects – Mobjects to capture.
  • kwargs – Keyword arguments to be passed to get_mobjects_to_display().

Notes

For a list of classes that can currently be rendered, see display_funcs().

init_background()

Initialize the background. If self.background_image is the path of an image the image is set as background; else, the default background color fills the background.

set_background(pixel_array, **kwargs)

Sets the background to the passed pixel_array after converting to valid RGB values.

• Parameters:
  • pixel_array – The pixel array to set the background to.
  • convert_from_floats – Whether or not to convert floats values to proper RGB valid ones, by default False

set_pixel_array(pixel_array, **kwargs)

Sets the pixel array of the camera to the passed pixel array.

• Parameters:
  • pixel_array – The pixel array to convert and then set as the camera’s pixel array.
  • convert_from_floats – Whether or not to convert float values to proper RGB values, by default False
