IntersectLine

Intersect an imported 2D mesh with a straight line. The operation will partition geometric entities and intersect mesh elements to introduce straight boundaries in an intersected domain.

Syntax

model.component(<ctag>).mesh(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"IntersectLine");

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

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

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

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

Description

Use model.component(<ctag>).mesh(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"IntersectLine") to partition geometric entities and mesh elements of an imported mesh by specifying a straight line.

Use model.component(<ctag>).mesh(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).selection() to specify the geometric entities to split with the line. If you do not specify the selection, the feature operates on the entire geometry.

The following properties are available:
