EditBoundaryBuilder Class

class NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.EditBoundaryBuilder

Bases: NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.ProfileSystemBuilder

Used to create a NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.EditBoundaryBuilder which is used to change the boundaries and split knuckle locations of profile systems.

To create a new instance of this class, use NXOpen.Features.ShipCollection.CreateEditBoundaryBuilder()

New in version NX12.0.0.

Properties

Property Description
AngleTolerance Returns or sets the tolerance, in degrees, used to determine when angles are zero.
Boundary1 Returns the collector containing the plate system, profile system, or datum plane that will be used to trim the first end of the generated profile system.
Boundary1Plane Returns or sets the defined plane that will be used to trim the first end of the generated profile system.
Boundary2 Returns the collector containing the plate system, profile system, or datum plane that will be used to trim the second end of the generated profile system.
Boundary2Plane Returns or sets the defined plane that will be used to trim the second end of the generated profile system.
BoundaryReverse Returns or sets the indication if the side of a single boundary should be changed to the other side or not.
DistanceTolerance Returns or sets the tolerance used to determine when distances are considered zero.
FirstIntersectionPoints Returns the selected intersection points between the curves and the first boundary.
OrientationAngleRule Returns or sets the angle rule to use when measuring angles.
ParentFeatureInternal Returns or sets whether or not the latest timestamped parent feature of this feature should be made internal
PatchSolutionFlag Returns or sets the patch solution flag
PatchSurfaceFilename Returns or sets the patch surface filename
ProfileSystem Returns the ship structures to change the boundary information
ReversePathDirection Returns or sets the flag that indicates if the default curve direction should be reversed or not.
SecondIntersectionPoints Returns the selected intersection points between the curves and the second boundary.
SplitKnuckleLocations Returns the collector containing the knuckle points that are to be used to create seams.
SurroundingPatchSurfaceFilename Returns or sets the surrounding patch surface filename
Tag Returns the Tag for this object.
UseNewDefaultSectionAlgorithm Returns or sets the flag that indicates if the new default section algorithm is used.

Methods

Method Description
Commit Commits any edits that have been applied to the builder.
CommitFeature Commits the feature parameters and creates the feature
CreatePathCurves Creates path curves for all the paths of the profile system.
CreatePlaneForList Create a NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.PlaneListBuilder to add a defined plane to a list.
DeleteLastPathCurves Deletes the path curves returned from a call to GetLastPathCurves().
DeletePathCurves Deletes the path curves created from a call to CreatePathCurves().
Destroy Deletes the builder, and cleans up any objects created by the builder.
GetCommittedObjects For builders that create more than one object, this method returns the objects that are created by commit.
GetFeature Returns the feature currently being edited by this builder.
GetLastPathCurves Gets the path curves used by NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.OrientationDefinitionBuilder.
GetObject Returns the object currently being edited by this builder.
GetSelectedKnuckles Outputs the knuckle points that have been selected in seams.
HideInternalParentFeatureAfterEdit Re-suppress an internal parent feature (a slave feature) after it has been edited.
SetBoundaryOnePoints Sets the selected intersection points for the first boundary.
SetBoundaryTwoPoints Set the selected intersection points for the second boundary.
SetParentFeatureInternal Set the parent features which would be internal or slaves to the feature being created or commited
SetRegionPoints Sets the points that identify which regions of the curves will be used.
ShowInternalParentFeatureForEdit Unsuppress an internal parent feature (a slave feature) so it can be edited.
ShowResults Updates the model to reflect the result of an edit to the model for all builders that support showing results.
UnsetParentFeatureInternal Set the internal parent feature of the feature being edited to external
Validate Validate whether the inputs to the component are sufficient for commit to be called.

Getter Method

Signature ProfileSystem

Returns:
Return type:NXOpen.SelectTaggedObjectList

New in version NX12.0.0.

License requirements: None.

Method Detail

GetSelectedKnuckles

EditBoundaryBuilder.GetSelectedKnuckles

Outputs the knuckle points that have been selected in seams.

Signature GetSelectedKnuckles(profile)

Parameters:profile (NXOpen.Curve) –
Returns:Knuckle points that have been selected in seams.
Return type:list of NXOpen.Point

New in version NX12.0.0.

License requirements: None.

Validate

EditBoundaryBuilder.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
