class auto_delete_nodes(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Specifies whether or not unused nodes should be deleted when their face zone is deleted.

class change_prefix(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Enables you to change the prefix for the specified face zones.

class change_suffix(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Change the suffix for specified face zones.

class copy(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Copies all nodes and faces of the specified face zone(s).

class create(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Creates a new face zone.

class delete(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Deletes the face zone.

class flip(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Reverses the normal direction of the specified boundary zone(s).

class id(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Specifies a new boundary zone ID. If there is a conflict, the change will be ignored.

class list(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Prints information about all boundary zones.

class merge(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Merges face zones.

class name(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Gives a face zone a new name.

class orient(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Consistently orients the faces in the specified zones.

class origin(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Specifies a new origin for the mesh, to be used for face zone rotation and for periodic zone creation. The default origin is (0,0,0).

class remove_suffix(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Removes the suffix (characters including and after the leftmost “:”) in the face zone names.

class rotate(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Rotates all nodes of the specified face zone(s).

class rotate_model(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Rotates all nodes of the model through the specified angle, based on the specified point and axis of rotation.

class scale(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Scales all nodes of the specified face zone(s).

class scale_model(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Scales all nodes of the model by multiplying the node coordinates by the specified scale factors (x, y, z).

class translate(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Translates all nodes of the specified face zone(s).

class translate_model(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Translates all nodes of the model by the specified translation offsets (x, y, z). The translation offsets are interpreted as absolute numbers in meshing mode. In solution mode, however, the translation offsets are assumed to be distances in the length unit set. This may lead to differences in domain extents reported after translating the mesh in the respective modes.

class type(service, version, mode, path)

Bases: TUIMethod

Changes the boundary type of the face zone. When changing the boundary type of any zone to type interior, ensure that there is a single cell zone across the interior boundary. Retaining multiple cell zones across an interior boundary can cause undesirable results with further tet meshing or smoothing operations. Also, face zones having no/one neighboring cell zone should not be changed to type interior. The mesh check will issue a warning if multiple cell zones are maintained across an interior boundary. The boundary type in such cases should be set to internal instead.
