Import mphbin/mphtxt

Use model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"Import") to create a geometry import feature. When the property filename is set to a file recognized as an mphbin or mphtxt file, the property type is set to native and the following properties are available:

Table 3-70: Valid Property/Value Pairs
Property	Value	Default	Description
color	none \| custom \| integer between 1 and the number of colors in the current theme	none	The color of the selection, either given as an integer indicating a color in the color theme, or as a custom color in the customcolor property. Coloring is only available when selresult in active.
contributeto	String	none	Tag of cumulative selection to contribute to.
customcolor	RGB-triplet	Next available theme color	The color to use. Active when color is set to custom.
filename	String		Filename.
includevirtual	boolean	true	Include virtual operations when importing the geometry. Not available in 1D and in work planes, where virtual operations are always excluded.
selresult	on \| off	off	Create selections of all resulting objects.
selresultshow	all \| obj \| dom \| bnd \| edg \| pnt \| off	dom	Show selections, if selresult is on, in physics, materials, and so on; in part instances; or in 3D from a plane geometry. obj is not available in a component’s geometry. dom, bnd, and edg are not available in all features.
selindividual	on \| off	off	Create selections of individual objects.
selindividualshow	all \| dom \| bnd \| edg \| pnt \| off	dom	Show selections, when selindividual is on, of individual objects in physics, materials, and so on; in part instances; or in 3D from a plane geometry.
type	native		Type of import.

The file specified by filename can be of any of the following formats:

Table 3-71: Supported File Formats
File Format	File Extensions
COMSOL Multiphysics Binary	.mphbin
COMSOL Multiphysics Text	.mphtxt

The imported objects are represented using COMSOL’s geometry kernel or the CAD Import Module’s geometry kernel (Parasolid).

If selresult is set to on, a selection is created for all resulting entities of each type (object, domain, boundary, edge, and point), for use in the geometry sequence. To access the object selection, use model.geom(<tag>).selection(<ftag>), where <tag> is the geometry tag and <ftag> is the feature tag. To access the other selections, use model.geom(<tag>).selection(<ftag>.<lvl>), where <tag> is the geometry tag, <ftag> is the feature tag, and <lvl> is one of dom, bnd, edg, or pnt (edg is not available for DXF import in 2D). If, in addition, selresultshow is set to a value other than off, all or some of these selections appear for use outside the geometry sequence. To access these selections, use model.selection(<tag>_<ftag>_<lvl>), where <tag> is the geometry tag, <ftag> is the feature tag, and <lvl> is one of dom, bnd, edg, or pnt (edg is not available for DXF import in 2D).

If selindividual is set to on, a selection is created for all resulting entities of each type (object, domain, boundary, edge, and point) of each individual object, for use in the geometry sequence. To access the object selections, use model.geom(<tag>).selection(<otag>), where <otag> is a tag derived from the name of the imported object. For standard object names of the form <ftag>(<n>), where <n> is an object number, the corresponding <otag> is <ftag>_<n>. To access the other selections, use model.geom(<tag>).selection(<otag>_<lvl>), where <otag> is a tag derived from the name of the imported object. If, in addition, selindividualshow is set to a value other than off, all or some of these selections appear for use outside the geometry sequence. To access these selections, use model.selection(<tag>_<otag>_<lvl>), where <otag> is a tag derived from the name of the imported object. For standard object names of the form <ftag>(<n>), where <n> is an object number, the corresponding <otag> is <ftag>_<n>.
