PartitionDomains

Partition domains in 2D or 3D geometries with curves and surfaces defined in various ways.

Syntax

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"PartitionDomains");

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).selection(property);

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature().set(property,<value>);

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature().getType(property);

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).setAttribute(attribute,<value>);

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).getAttribute(attribute);

Description

The Partition Domains operation partitions selected domains using curves or surfaces defined by vertices, edges, faces, work planes, or objects.

The following properties are available:


Property	Value	Default	Description
absrepairtol	double	...geom(<tag>). absRepairTol()	Absolute repair tolerance.
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.
domain	Selection		Selection of domains to partition.
edge	Selection		Edges that define the partitioning curves (2D).
extendededge	Selection		Edges whose underlying curves define the partitioning curves (2D).
extendedface	Selection		Faces whose underlying surfaces define the partitioning surfaces (3D).
face	Selection		Faces that define the partitioning surfaces (3D).
keepobject	on \| off	on	Keep objects used to partition the geometry with, when partitionwith is set to objects.
object	Selection		Geometry objects used to partition domains.
partitionwith	linesegments \| lines \| edges \| extendededges \| objects in 2D workplane \| faces \| extendedfaces \| objects in 3D	linesegments in 2D, workplane in 3D	Method for partitioning the domains. The objects option is not available for partitioning domains after a form union/assembly operation.
repairtol	double	...geom(<tag>). repairTol()	Relative repair tolerance, relative to size of union of inputs.
repairtoltype	auto \| relative \| absolute	...geom(<tag>). repairTolType()	Repair tolerance type: automatic, relative, or absolute.
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.
vertexsegment	Selection		Vertices that define the line segments (2D).
vertexline	Selection		Vertices that define the lines (2D).
workplane	String		Work plane to partition with (3D).

For information about the selresult and contributeto properties, see Selections of Geometric Entities.

The following attributes are available:

Table 3-128: Valid attributes
Name	Value	Default	Description
construction	on \| off \| inherit	inherit	Designate the resulting objects as construction geometry. Use inherit to set the construction geometry attribute only if all input objects are construction geometry.
