Detailed Description

Represents a NXOpen.CAE.ModelCheck.ElementEdgeCheckBuilder which can be used to detect free element edges or non-manifold edges.

A free edge is any Element edge that is not shared by any other element face (on either 2D or 3D elements ) within the defined scope of the check. A non-manifold edge is any Element edge that is shared more than 2 element faces (on either 2D or 3D elements ) within the defined scope of the check.

The computation scope ElementEdgeCheckBuilder.ComputationScope will affect on the checking result. The free element edges or non-manifold edges found will be displayed using the display setting NXOpen.CAE.ModelCheck.ElementEdgeCheckBuilder.EdgeDisplayStyle . You can execute checking through Builder.Commit or NXOpen.CAE.ModelCheck.ElementEdgeCheckBuilder.ExecuteCheck . Commiting the builder performs checking and displays the free edges and non-manifold edges in graphic window.

To create a new instance of this class, use NXOpen.CAE.ModelCheckManager.CreateElementEdgeCheckBuilder

enum NXOpen.CAE.ModelCheck.ElementEdgeCheckBuilder.Scope

Enumerator
EntireModel	Takes all elements in the model into account while computing
VisibleModel	Only takes visible elements into account while computing
SelectedModels	Only takes selected elements into account while computing

Member Function Documentation

unsafe void NXOpen.CAE.ModelCheck.ElementEdgeCheckBuilder.DoCheck	(	out NXOpen.CAE.FEElemEdge[]	freeEdges,
		out NXOpen.CAE.FEElemEdge[]	nonManifoldEdges,
		out NXOpen.CAE.FEElement[]	assoElems,
		out NXOpen.CAE.CaeGroup	outputGroup
	)

inline

Finds free edges when CAE.ModelCheck.ElementEdgeCheckBuilder.CheckFreeEdges is set, and non-manifold edges when CAE.ModelCheck.ElementEdgeCheckBuilder.CheckNonManifoldEdges is set, returns the associated elements and output group for free and/or non-manifold element edges.

For the associated elements, if both checks are done at the same time, the elements associated to free edges are returned firstly in the list.

License requirements: nx_masterfem ("Finite Element Modeling") OR nx_design_sim ("NX Design Simulation")

Parameters

freeEdges	free element edges
nonManifoldEdges	non-manifold element edges
assoElems	associated elements for free and/or non-manifold element edges, if both checks are done at the same time, the elements associated to free edges are returned firstly in the list.
outputGroup	output group for free and/or non-manifold element edges

unsafe void NXOpen.CAE.ModelCheck.ElementEdgeCheckBuilder.ExecuteCheck	(	out NXOpen.CAE.FEElemEdge[]	freeEdges,
		out NXOpen.CAE.FEElemEdge[]	nonManifoldEdges
	)

inline

Finds free edges when CAE.ModelCheck.ElementEdgeCheckBuilder.CheckFreeEdges is set, and non-manifold edges when CAE.ModelCheck.ElementEdgeCheckBuilder.CheckNonManifoldEdges is set.

The method Builder.Commit will also do the same thing, but display the element edges instead of returning them.
