Variable Documentation

std::string nucleation_spec

Options valid for the command 'new fiber' may be specified here: see Fiber and Derived Activities.

Specificity specificity

The specificity can be:

  • none (default)
  • parallel
  • antiparallel

With 'specificity=none', the direction will follow the value of 'orientation', specified within nucleation_spec.

FiberEnd track_end

By default the Hand will remain attached at the MINUS_END of any fiber that it has nucleated. But other values are possible:

  • none
  • plus_end
  • minus_end
  • nearest_end
