Split
Split (explode) objects into domains, faces, edges, or vertices.
Syntax
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"Split");
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).selection(property);
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).set(property,<value>);
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).getType(property);
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).setAttribute(attribute,<value>);
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).getAttribute(attribute);
Description
Use model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"Split") to split geometry objects.
Use model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).selection("input") to select the objects to split. The default selection is empty.
none | custom | integer between 1 and the number of colors in the current theme
The color to use. Active when color is set to custom.
on | off
on | off
on | off
all | obj | dom | bnd | edg | pnt | off
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.
For information about the selresult and contributeto properties, see Selections of Geometric Entities.
The following attributes are available:
Table 3-159: Valid attributes
on | off | inherit
Designate the resulting objects as construction geometry. Use inherit to set the construction geometry attribute only if all input objects are construction geometry.
Example
Split union of a solid circle and a solid rectangle.
Code for Use with Java
Model model = ModelUtil.create("Model1");
model.component().create("comp1");
GeomSequence g = model.component("comp1").geom().create("geom1",2);
g.create("r1","Rectangle");
g.create("c1","Circle");
g.create("u1","Union");
g.feature("u1").selection("input").set(new String[]{"r1","c1"});
g.create("spl1","Split");
g.feature("spl1").selection("input").set("u1");
g.run();
Code for Use with MATLAB
model = ModelUtil.create('Model1');
model.component.create('comp1');
g = model.component('comp1').geom.create('geom1',2);
g.create('r1','Rectangle');
g.create('c1','Circle');
g.create('u1','Union');
g.feature('u1').selection('input').set({'r1','c1'});
g.create('spl1','Split');
g.feature('spl1').selection('input').set('u1');
g.run;
