 <a id="details" name="details"></a>## Detailed Description

Update a Geom entity.

The geom entity holds the physical arrays used for rendering. It contains a coordinate array and connectivity that is relative to the coordinate array for this geom. The connectivity can be triangles, lines or empty (points). If triangles, optional edgeflags specify the "line" representation of the triangles (for element outlining) Otherwise, the geom object can hold the data payloads for other variables tagged via their variable id. The use of these variables is dictated by fields in the Part entity that note the use of specific variables for other purposes (e.g. normals, coloring, node size, etc). Multiple [UpdateGeom](structensightservice_1_1_update_geom.xhtml "Update a Geom entity.") packets are send to fill in an entire array, limited by the size specified in the init command. All Geom packets for a specific array will include the full size of the target array (in base type units, uint32 or float) and an offset where the payload of a specific [UpdateGeom](structensightservice_1_1_update_geom.xhtml "Update a Geom entity.") packet should be stored in the array.
