OrientationViewStyle Class

class NXOpen.Drawings.OrientationViewStyle

Bases: object

Represents set of Orientation View Style Preferences applicable to drafting views.

To obtain an instance of this class use Drawings.ViewStyle.Orientation()

New in version NX5.0.0.

Properties

Property Description
HingeLine Returns or sets the hinge line for an existing auxillary view.
RotationPlane Returns or sets the rotation plane.
RotationXDirection Returns or sets the rotation in x-direction for the drawing member view which stays parallel to the x-axis drawing coordinate.

Methods

Method Description
OrientView Orients the view.
Restore Removes the associativity to the defined plane (if it existed) and returns the member view to its orientation with the model with respect to the Absolute Coordinate System.
ReverseHingeLine Reverse the hinge line.
ReverseRotationVector Reverse the rotation vector.

Method Detail

OrientView

OrientationViewStyle.OrientView

Orients the view.

Signature OrientView(matrix)

Parameters:matrix (NXOpen.Matrix3x3) – Orientation relative to the absolute coordinate system. Must be orthonormal.

New in version NX5.0.0.

License requirements: drafting (“DRAFTING”)

Restore

OrientationViewStyle.Restore

Removes the associativity to the defined plane (if it existed) and returns the member view to its orientation with the model with respect to the Absolute Coordinate System.

Signature Restore()

New in version NX5.0.0.

ReverseHingeLine

OrientationViewStyle.ReverseHingeLine

Reverse the hinge line.

The direction of this vector determines how the view is rendered.
