LineSegment
Create line segments in 2D and 3D.
Syntax
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"LineSegment");
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).set(property,<value>);
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).getType(property);
Description
Use model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"LineSegment") to create a line segment. The following properties are available:
vertex | coord
vertex | coord
Coordinates for start point (with specify1 set to coord).
Coordinates for endpoint (with specify2 set to coord).
Start point (with specify1 set to vertex).
Endpoint (with specify2 set to vertex).
on | off
all | obj | dom | bnd | off
Show selections, if selresult is on, of resulting objects in physics, materials, and so on, or in part instances. obj is not available in a component’s geometry. dom, bnd, and edg are not available in all features.
this | Part Instance feature
xyplane | Work plane feature
For information about the selresult and contributeto properties, see Selections of Geometric Entities.
Example
The following commands create a block in 3D and a line segment from a vertex in that block to a point with the coordinates (0, 1, 2):
Code for Use with Java
Model model = ModelUtil.create("Model");
model.component().create("comp1");
GeomSequence g = model.component("comp1").geom().create("geom1", 3);
g.create("blk1", "Block");
g.create("ls1", "LineSegment");
g.feature("ls1").set("specify1", "vertex");
g.feature("ls1").set("specify2", "coord");
g.feature("ls1").selection("vertex1").set("blk1(1)", new int[]{1});
g.feature("ls1").set("coord2", new double[]{0, 1, 2});
g.run();
Code for Use with MATLAB
model = ModelUtil.create('Model');
model.component.create('comp1');
g = model.component('comp1').geom.create('geom1', 3);
g.create('blk1', 'Block');
g.create('ls1', 'LineSegment');
g.feature('ls1').set('specify1', 'vertex');
g.feature('ls1').set('specify2', 'coord');
g.feature('ls1').selection('vertex1').set('blk1(1)', 1);
g.feature('ls1').set('coord2', [0, 1, 2]);
g.run;
