Circumscribe

Qualified name: manim.animation.indication.Circumscribe

class Circumscribe(mobject=None, *args, use_override=True, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: Succession

Draw a temporary line surrounding the mobject.

Parameters:

  • mobject (Mobject) – The mobject to be circumscribed.

  • shape (type[Rectangle] | type[Circle]) – The shape with which to surround the given mobject. Should be either Rectangle or Circle

  • fade_in (bool) – Whether to make the surrounding shape to fade in. It will be drawn otherwise.

  • fade_out (bool) – Whether to make the surrounding shape to fade out. It will be undrawn otherwise.

  • time_width (float) – The time_width of the drawing and undrawing. Gets ignored if either fade_in or fade_out is True.

  • buff (float) – The distance between the surrounding shape and the given mobject.

  • color (ParsableManimColor) – The color of the surrounding shape.

  • run_time (float) – The duration of the entire animation.

  • kwargs (Any) – Additional arguments to be passed to the Succession constructor

  • stroke_width (float)
