Fields¶
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| MaximumFacetEdges | The maximum number of edges allowed in the facets that are to be generated (this does not apply to JT). |
| SpecifySurfaceTolerance | If this value is true, then values must be specified for surfaceDistanceTolerance and surfaceAngularTolerance. |
| SurfaceDistanceTolerance | This is the maximum distance from the surface to the facet. |
| SurfaceAngularTolerance | This is the maximum angular variation in radians of the surface normal over the facet. |
| SpecifyCurveTolerance | This indicates that values are to be specified for curveDistanceTolerance and curveAngularTolerance and curve_max_length. |
| CurveDistanceTolerance | This is the maximum distance between the facet edge and the curve segment represented by the facet edge. |
| CurveAngularTolerance | This is the maximum angular variation in radians of the curve tangent along the curve segment represented by the facet edge. |
| CurveMaximumLength | The maximum length of a curve, default is 1000. |
| SpecifyConvexFacets | This indicates that the facets generated by the faceter should all be convex (this does not apply to JT). |
| SpecifyMaximumFacetSize | This indicates that a maximum width of facet is to be specified using maximumFacetSize. |
| MaximumFacetSize | This is the maximum width of a facet. |
| SpecifyParameters | This indicates that the model will be created with the parametric information for each vertex. |
| NumberStorageType | This indicates whether the real numbers for facet vertices and facet normals should be stored as floats (UF_FACET_TYPE_FLOAT) or as doubles (UF_FACET_TYPE_DOUBLE). |
| SpecifyViewDirection | Should we use a viewing direction for denser faceting around silhouettes. |
| SilhouetteViewDirection | If specifyViewDirection is specified, then this is the view direction to use (this does not apply to JT). |
| SilhouetteChordTolerance | If specifyViewDirection is specified then this is the tolerance which will be used as a tighter surface tolerance in the silhouette area specified by the view direction (this does not apply to JT). |
| StoreFaceTag | Should this FACET body record face tags or not (this does not apply to JT). |
| WithLODS | When creating a JT facet body whether to create LODs or not (this does not apply to NX). |
MaximumFacetEdges¶
-
FacetingParameters.MaximumFacetEdges¶ The maximum number of edges allowed in the facets that are to be generated (this does not apply to JT).
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:int
SpecifySurfaceTolerance¶
-
FacetingParameters.SpecifySurfaceTolerance¶ If this value is true, then values must be specified for surfaceDistanceTolerance and surfaceAngularTolerance.
If this value is false then values for surfaceDistanceTolerance and surfaceAngularTolerance will be determined by the system based on the body box or face box of the solid entity being faceted.
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:bool
SurfaceDistanceTolerance¶
-
FacetingParameters.SurfaceDistanceTolerance¶ This is the maximum distance from the surface to the facet.
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:float
SurfaceAngularTolerance¶
-
FacetingParameters.SurfaceAngularTolerance¶ This is the maximum angular variation in radians of the surface normal over the facet.
A value of zero indicates no constraint.
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:float
SpecifyCurveTolerance¶
-
FacetingParameters.SpecifyCurveTolerance¶ This indicates that values are to be specified for curveDistanceTolerance and curveAngularTolerance and curve_max_length.
If this value is false then values for curveDistanceTolerance and curveAngularTolerance will be determined by the system based on the body box or face box of the solid entity being faceted, and no restriction will be placed on the maximum length of curve that can be represented by a single facet edge.
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:bool
CurveDistanceTolerance¶
-
FacetingParameters.CurveDistanceTolerance¶ This is the maximum distance between the facet edge and the curve segment represented by the facet edge.
This applies only to those facet edges lying along solid edges.
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:float
CurveAngularTolerance¶
-
FacetingParameters.CurveAngularTolerance¶ This is the maximum angular variation in radians of the curve tangent along the curve segment represented by the facet edge.
This applies only to those facet edges lying along solid edges. A value of zero indicates no constraint.
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:float
CurveMaximumLength¶
-
FacetingParameters.CurveMaximumLength¶ The maximum length of a curve, default is 1000.
0
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:float
SpecifyConvexFacets¶
-
FacetingParameters.SpecifyConvexFacets¶ This indicates that the facets generated by the faceter should all be convex (this does not apply to JT).
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:bool
SpecifyMaximumFacetSize¶
-
FacetingParameters.SpecifyMaximumFacetSize¶ This indicates that a maximum width of facet is to be specified using maximumFacetSize.
If this field is false then no maximum facet size is imposed.
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:bool
MaximumFacetSize¶
-
FacetingParameters.MaximumFacetSize¶ This is the maximum width of a facet.
This is only used if specifyMaximumFacetSize is true.
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:float
SpecifyParameters¶
-
FacetingParameters.SpecifyParameters¶ This indicates that the model will be created with the parametric information for each vertex.
Should parameters at the vertices be obtained for the facets of the model (this does not apply to JT).
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:bool
NumberStorageType¶
-
FacetingParameters.NumberStorageType¶ This indicates whether the real numbers for facet vertices and facet normals should be stored as floats (UF_FACET_TYPE_FLOAT) or as doubles (UF_FACET_TYPE_DOUBLE).
Note that this option applies only when a faceted model is being created, and is ignored when the model is updated. This option is not applicable to JT creation or update.
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:int
SpecifyViewDirection¶
-
FacetingParameters.SpecifyViewDirection¶ Should we use a viewing direction for denser faceting around silhouettes.
The denser faceting will honor the tolerance specified by silhouetteChordTolerance in the silhouette with respect to the view direction specified by silhouetteViewDirection vector. If this is false, there is no special consideration for any silhouette area (this does not apply to JT).
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:bool
SilhouetteViewDirection¶
-
FacetingParameters.SilhouetteViewDirection¶ If specifyViewDirection is specified, then this is the view direction to use (this does not apply to JT).
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:
NXOpen.Vector3d
SilhouetteChordTolerance¶
-
FacetingParameters.SilhouetteChordTolerance¶ If specifyViewDirection is specified then this is the tolerance which will be used as a tighter surface tolerance in the silhouette area specified by the view direction (this does not apply to JT).
-------------------------------------Field Value Type:float
