        v = s.get_vertex(i)
        v[0] += py5.random(-1, 1)
        v[1] += py5.random(-1, 1)

    py5.shape(s)

Description

The get_vertex() method returns a numpy array with the coordinates of the vertex point located at the position defined by the index parameter. This method works when shapes are created as shown in the example, but won’t work properly when a shape is defined explicitly (e.g. create_shape(RECT, 20, 20, 80, 80).

Underlying Java method: PShape.getVertex

Syntax

get_vertex(index: int, /) -> NDArray[(Any,), Float]
get_vertex(index: int, vec: NDArray[(Any,), Float], /) -> NDArray[(Any,), Float]

Parameters

  • index: int - vertex index

  • vec: NDArray[(Any,), Float] - properly sized numpy array to assign the data to
