Returns:

the center

setCenter

public Sphere setCenter(Vector3d center)

Sets the center.

Parameters:

center - the center to set

getRadius

public double getRadius()

Gets the radius.

Returns:

the radius

setRadius

public Sphere setRadius(double radius)

Sets the radius.

Parameters:

radius - the radius to set

getNumSlices

public int getNumSlices()

Gets the num slices.

Returns:

the numSlices

setNumSlices

public Sphere setNumSlices(int numSlices)

Sets the num slices.

numSlices - the numSlices to set

getNumStacks

public int getNumStacks()

Gets the num stacks.

Returns:

the numStacks

setNumStacks

public Sphere setNumStacks(int numStacks)

Sets the num stacks.

Parameters:

numStacks - the numStacks to set
