.. py:property:: visualization_polydata
   :type: pyvista.PolyData

   :abstractmethod:

   
   VTK polydata representation for PyVista visualization.

   The representation lies in the X/Y plane within
   the standard global Cartesian coordinate system.




   :Returns:

       :obj:`pyvista.PolyData`
           VTK pyvista.Polydata configuration.

Method detail
-------------
.. py:method:: plane_change(plane: ansys.geometry.core.math.plane.Plane) -> None

   
   Redefine the plane containing ``SketchEdge`` objects.


   :Parameters:

       **plane** : :obj:`Plane`
           Desired new plane that is to contain the sketched edge.











   .. rubric:: Notes

   This implies that their 3D definition might suffer changes. By default, this
   metho does nothing. It is required to be implemented in child ``SketchEdge``
   classes.
