(2D & 3D elements) using the following building functions:
To use Explode:
In the main menu select New Entity > Explode.
Description: Returns a list of subshapes (vertices, edges, wires etc.) of the given shape.
Result : List of GEOM_Objects.
TUI Command:
geompy.SubShape(Shape, ListOfID), where Shape is a shape whose subshape(s) is (are) retrieved, ListOfID is a list of requested sub shapes IDs. To get a subshape ID use method GetSubShapeID().
geompy.SubShapeAll(Shape, TypeOfShape), where Shape is a shape to be exploded on sub shapes of type TypeOfShape.
Arguments: 1 SHAPE + 1 type of SubShape.
Dialog Box:
To use building functions:
In the main menu select New Entity > Build submenu.
Description: Creates an edge.
Result: GEOM_Object (EDGE).
TUI Command: geompy.MakeEdge(Vertex1, Vertex2), where Vertex1 and Vertex2 are correspondingly the first and the last vertex of the edge.
Arguments: Name + 2 vertices.
Dialog Box:
Example:
Description: Creates a wire.
Result: GEOM_Object (WIRE).
TUI Command : geompy.MakeWire(ListOfShape), where ListOfShape is a list of edges and/or wires from which the wire to be constructed.
Arguments: Name + List of connected wires or edges..
Dialog Box:
Example:
Description: Creates a face.
Result: GEOM_Object (FACE).
TUI Command: geompy.MakeFace(Wire, WantPlanarFace), where Wire is a wire and if boolean parameter WantPlanarFace is planar then only a planar face or no face is constructed.
Arguments: Name + 1 wire.
Dialog Box:
Example:
Description: Creates a shell.
Result: GEOM_Object (SHELL).
TUI Command: geompy.MakeShell(ListOfShape), where ListOfShape is a list of faces and (or) shells from which the shell is constructed.
Arguments: Name + List of faces having connected edges.
Dialog Box:
Example:
Description: Creates a solid - closed geometrical 3D element.
Result: GEOM_Object (SOLID).
TUI Command: geompy.MakeSolid(ListOfShape), where ListOfShape is a list of shells from which the solid is constructed.
Arguments: Name + A closed shell or a list of shells.
Dialog Box:
Description: Creates a compound.
Result: GEOM_Object (COMPOUND).
TUI Command: geompy.MakeCompound(ListOfShape), where ListOfShape is a list of shapes from which the compound is constructed.
Arguments: Name + List of shapes.
Dialog Box:
Example:
