Conic Class¶
-
class
NXOpen.
Conic
¶ Bases:
NXOpen.Curve
Represents a conic curve.
The conic lies in the X-Y plane of the orientation matrix for this conic. The normal is along the Z axis of the matrix and the rotation angle is measured relative to the X and Y axes of the matrix. The rotation angle of an ellipse is the angle at which the major axis is tilted in the counterclockwise direction from the X axis. The rotation angle of a parabola is the angle formed between the axis of symmetry and the X axis. It is measured in a counterclockwise direction with a pivot point at the vertex. The rotation angle of a hyperbola is the angle at which the semi-transverse axis makes with the X axis. The pivot point is at the center of the hyperbola and the angle is measured in a counterclockwise direction. In the case of an arc, the rotation angle is always zero. This is an abstract class, and cannot be instantiated
