Deletes the selected labels.

draw(*args, **kwargs)#

Displays the selected labels.

remove_from_graphics(*args, **kwargs)#

Removes the selected labels from the display in the graphics window.

rename(*args, **kwargs)#

Enables you to rename the selected labels. Specify the path for the labels and the new name. For multiple selections, the specified name will be used, with a suitable index as suffix. For example, specifying a new label name wall will result in entities wall.1, wall.2, etc.

class manage_state(path, service)#

Bases: TUIMenu

Contains options for setting the CAD entity state.

Methods:

suppress(*args, **kwargs)

Suppresses the selected CAD entities.

unlock(*args, **kwargs)

Unlocks the selected CAD entities.

unsuppress(*args, **kwargs)

Unsuppresses the selected CAD entities.
suppress(*args, **kwargs)#

Suppresses the selected CAD entities.

unlock(*args, **kwargs)#

Unlocks the selected CAD entities.

unsuppress(*args, **kwargs)#

Unsuppresses the selected CAD entities.

rename(*args, **kwargs)#

Enables you to rename the selected entities. Specify the path for the entities and the new name. For multiple entities, the specified name will be used, with a suitable index as suffix. For example, specifying a new name wall will result in entities wall.1, wall.2, etc.

replace_object(*args, **kwargs)#

Enables you to replace an object with the selected CAD entities. Specify the path for the entities to be added and select the object to be modified.

update_cad_assemblies(*args, **kwargs)#

Reimports the selected CAD entities using new parameters specified in the update-options/ menu.

class update_options(path, service)#

Bases: TUIMenu

Contains options for updating the CAD entities on reimport.

Methods:

import_edge_zones(*args, **kwargs)

Enables you to import edge zones from the CAD entities on reimport.

one_object_per(*args, **kwargs)

Enables you to change the CAD object granularity on reimport.

one_zone_per(*args, **kwargs)

Enables you to change the CAD zone granularity on reimport.

tessellation(*args, **kwargs)

Enables you to control the tessellation (faceting) during reimport.
import_edge_zones(*args, **kwargs)#

Enables you to import edge zones from the CAD entities on reimport. Specify an appropriate value for feature angle.

one_object_per(*args, **kwargs)#

Enables you to change the CAD object granularity on reimport.

one_zone_per(*args, **kwargs)#

Enables you to change the CAD zone granularity on reimport.

tessellation(*args, **kwargs)#

Enables you to control the tessellation (faceting) during reimport. You can select either cad-faceting or cfd-surface-mesh. CAD faceting enables you to control the tessellation based on the CAD faceting tolerance and maximum facet size specified. CFD Surface Mesh enables you to use a size field file during reimport. If you enter yes, specify the size field file to be read. If you do not want to use a size field file, you can obtain conformal faceting based on the underlying curve and surface curvature (using the minimum and maximum facet sizes, and the facet curvature normal angle specified) and edge proximity (using the cells per gap specified). You can also save the size field in a file (size field is computed based on the specified parameters; that is, Min Size, Max Size, Curvature Normal Angle, Cells Per Gap).
