Member Enumeration Documentation

enum NXOpen.GeometricUtilities.PatternSpacing.SpacingType

defines the type of spacing instances can have within a pattern.

Enumerator
Offset	Specify distance from the origin of one instance to the origin of the next instance.
Span	Specify a distance for which all instances should occupy.
PitchAndSpan	Specify distance between instances and distance for all instances, number of copies is calculated.
Pitch	This is for pattern fill case. Count is calculated based on the pitch and fill boundary box.
List	Specify offsets with a list.
PolygonCountPerSide	This is for Polygon type. Specify number of count per side.
PolygonPitchAlongSide	This is for Polygon type. Specify a pitch distance along one side.

Member Function Documentation

unsafe bool NXOpen.GeometricUtilities.PatternSpacing.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.
