Member Function Documentation

NXOpen::Point3d NXOpen::View::AbsoluteOrigin ( )

Returns the view origin in absolute space.

License requirements : None

std::vector<NXOpen::DisplayableObject *> NXOpen::View::AskVisibleObjects ( )

Returns an array of objects visible in a view.

Objects which are hidden, on invisible layers, completely outside the X, Y clip plane bounds, or otherwise considered invisible are not included in the returned array.

Note there are some exceptions. Objects which are not within the front and back clip planes may be returned as visible. When run in batch mode, solids which are occluded by other solids in a hidden line view may be returned as visible.

Parameters

scale Relative scale factor

void NXOpen::View::Concatenate	(	const NXOpen::Point3d &	translation,
		double	scale
	)

Concatenates the given translation and scale with the previous viewing transformation of the specified view.

The translation is defined in view space, and conceptually occurs first. Then, the scale is applied to the view using the new view origin. Although this is logically a two step process, only the final result appears in the graphics window.
In batch mode, the translation and scale of the view are modified, but no display occurs.

Created in NX4.0.0.

License requirements : None

Parameters

translation	Point in view space to put at the center of the view
scale	Relative scale factor

void NXOpen::View::Concatenate	(	const NXOpen::Point3d &	centerOfRotation,
		const NXOpen::Vector3d &	rotationAxis,
		double	angle
	)

Concatenates the given rotation with the previous viewing transformation of the specified view.

First, if a center of rotation is given, a translation occurs to move the center of the view to the center of rotation. Then, the rotation occurs about the center of rotation. Finally, if a center of rotation is being used, the view is translated back to the origin it had upon entering the function. Although this is logically a three step process, only the final result appears in the graphics window.
In batch mode, the rotation of the view is modified, but no display occurs.

		double	angle
	)

Concatenates the given translation and rotation with the previous viewing transformation of the specified view.

The translation is defined in view space, and conceptually occurs first. Then, if a center of rotation is given, a translation occurs to move the center of the view to the center of rotation.

	)

Concatenates the given translation, scale and rotation with the previous viewing transformation of the specified view.

The translation is defined in view space, and conceptually occurs first. Then the scale is applied to the view using the newly defined center. Third, a translation occurs to move the center of the view to the center of rotation (if any). Fourth, the rotation occurs about the center of rotation. Finally, if a center of rotation is being used, the view is translated back to its origin as specified by the first argument.

void NXOpen::View::Fit ( )

Adjusts the bounds of a given view so that it fully encompasses the extents of the model geometry.

License requirements : None

void NXOpen::View::FitAfterShowOrHide ( NXOpen::View::ShowOrHideType type )

Adjusts the bounds of a given view conditionally so that it fully encompasses the extents of the model geometry.

This method is intended to be used only immediately after a show or hide operation has been done. The fit operation is performed only if the "Fit on Show or Hide" option is enabled by NXOpen::Preferences::SessionVisualizationScreen::DoFitOnHideOrShow , and if the work view is not a drawing view. If only a hide operation has been done and a fit would cause the view scale to decrease, the fit will not be done. If the view is displayed, the changes will appear in the display of that view, and, if enabled, the change in the bounds of the view is animated.
In batch mode, the data for the bounds of the view may be changed to the adjusted bounds, if the "Fit on Show or Hide" option is enabled and the other conditions are met, but no display occurs.

Returns the view origin.

Scales the specified view such that the given scale_about_point does not move.

If the specified scale is extremely small or extremely large, a minimum or maximum scale will be used. These are the same minimum and maximum values as used interactively. The relative_scale will be concatenated to the current scale of the view, so that 1.0 means no change of scale and 2.0 means that the scale of the view will be doubled.

Scales the specified view such that the specified rectangle is as large as possible while being fully contained within the viewport.

If the rectangle and the viewport do not have the same aspect ratio, the viewport will contain some of the view not within the rectangle. If the rectangle is extremely small or extremely large, a minimum or maximum scale will be used. These are the same minimum and maximum values as used interactively. The two opposite corners of the rectangle are given in View Space. The view must already be displayed. If enabled, the change in the bounds of the view is animated.
In batch mode, the scale and translation of the view are modified, but no display occurs.
