This topic describes the ST_SwapOrdinates function. This function swaps the specified coordinates of a meshgeom or sfmesh object.
Syntax
meshgeom ST_SwapOrdinates(meshgeom geom , cstring ords);
sfmesh ST_SwapOrdinates(sfmesh sfmeshObject, cstring ords);Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| geom | The meshgeom object. |
| sfmeshObject | The sfmesh object. |
| ords | The coordinates that you want to swap. The value is a string that consists of any two of the following letters: x, y, z, and m. |
Description
This function supports 3D objects and does not delete z coordinates.
This function supports m coordinates.
Examples
