Property Detail¶
AngularLaw¶
-
OrientationMethodBuilder.AngularLaw¶ Returns the angular law.
For orientation by an Angular Law, the section rotation along the guide curve is governed by the input law.
-------------------------------------Getter Method
Signature
AngularLaw()Returns: Return type: NXOpen.GeometricUtilities.LawBuilderNew in version NX5.0.0.
License requirements: None.
NormalFaceList¶
-
OrientationMethodBuilder.NormalFaceList¶ Returns the normal face list.
For orientation by Face Normals, the second axis of the local coordinate system is aligned with the resultant of normals of the input faces.
-------------------------------------Getter Method
Signature
NormalFaceList()Returns: Return type: NXOpen.SelectFaceListNew in version NX5.0.0.
License requirements: None.
OrientationCurve¶
-
OrientationMethodBuilder.OrientationCurve¶ Returns the orientation curve.
For orientation by Another Curve, the second axis of the local coordinate system is obtained by joining corresponding points on the guide and the input section.
-------------------------------------Getter Method
Signature
OrientationCurve()Returns: Return type: NXOpen.SectionNew in version NX5.0.0.
License requirements: None.
OrientationOption¶
-
OrientationMethodBuilder.OrientationOption¶ Returns or sets the orientation option.
Except for Fixed orientation method, additional parameters and/or inputs are required.
-------------------------------------Getter Method
Signature
OrientationOption()Returns: Return type: NXOpen.GeometricUtilities.OrientationMethodBuilderOrientationOptionsNew in version NX5.0.0.
License requirements: None.
-------------------------------------Setter Method
Signature
OrientationOption(orientationOption)Parameters: orientationOption ( NXOpen.GeometricUtilities.OrientationMethodBuilderOrientationOptions) –New in version NX5.0.0.
License requirements: solid_modeling (“SOLIDS MODELING”)
OrientationPoint¶
-
OrientationMethodBuilder.OrientationPoint¶ Returns or sets the orientation point.
For orientation by a Point, the second axis is obtained with the equivalent of a three-sided ruled sheet between the guide string and the input point.
-------------------------------------Getter Method
Signature
OrientationPoint()Returns: Return type: NXOpen.PointNew in version NX5.0.0.
License requirements: None.
-------------------------------------Setter Method
Signature
OrientationPoint(orientationPoint)Parameters: orientationPoint ( NXOpen.Point) –New in version NX5.0.0.
License requirements: solid_modeling (“SOLIDS MODELING”)
OrientationVector¶
-
OrientationMethodBuilder.OrientationVector¶ Returns or sets the orientation vector.
For orientation by Vector, the second axis of the local coordinate system is aligned with the input vector.
-------------------------------------Getter Method
Signature
OrientationVector()Returns: Return type: NXOpen.DirectionNew in version NX5.0.0.
License requirements: None.
-------------------------------------Setter Method
Signature
OrientationVector(orientationVector)Parameters: orientationVector ( NXOpen.Direction) –New in version NX5.0.0.
License requirements: solid_modeling (“SOLIDS MODELING”)
Method Detail¶
Validate¶
-
OrientationMethodBuilder.Validate¶ Validate whether the inputs to the component are sufficient for commit to be called.
If the component is not in a state to commit then an exception is thrown. For example, if the component requires you to set some property, this method will throw an exception if you haven’t set it. This method throws a not-yet-implemented NXException for some components.
Signature
Validate()Returns: Was self validation successful Return type: bool New in version NX3.0.1.
License requirements: None.
