# StripOrientation

An enumeration that specifies how a strip should be oriented.

```
enum StripOrientation
```

## Topics

### Enumeration Cases

[`case auto`](/documentation/ComputeGraph/StripOrientation/auto)

Automatically derive the orientation of the strip via neighbors and
any provided axisY or axisZ values.

[`case deriveFromYAxis`](/documentation/ComputeGraph/StripOrientation/deriveFromYAxis)

Derive the strip’s orientation from neighboring points and `axisY` float3 parameter

[`case deriveFromZAxis`](/documentation/ComputeGraph/StripOrientation/deriveFromZAxis)

Derive the strip’s orientation from neighboring points and `axisZ` float3 parameter

[`case frenet`](/documentation/ComputeGraph/StripOrientation/frenet)

Use strip’s frenet frame for orientation

[`case planar`](/documentation/ComputeGraph/StripOrientation/planar)

[`case useZAxis`](/documentation/ComputeGraph/StripOrientation/useZAxis)

Use the `axisZ` float3 parameter without re-orienting. Derive Y-axis from
neighboring points and `axisZ`.
