__init__(service, version, mode, path)#: __init__ method of TUIMenu class.

class bisect_angle(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Is required for growing prisms out of sharp interior corners. When the value of this angle is set, the normals are automatically projected onto the plane bisecting the angle between faces having an interior angle less than this angle.

class compute_normal(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Computes the normal for the specified face zone.

class converge_locally(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Converge normal smoothing locally by freezing each individually once it has converged?. Otherwise, all normals are continuously smoothed until all have converged.

class direction_method(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Specifies whether the prism layers should be grown normal to surfaces or along a specified direction vector.

class direction_vector(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Specifies the direction vector for prism extrusion when the uniform method is selected for direction-method.

class ignore_invalid_normals(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Enables you to ignore nodes that have poor normals.

class max_angle_change(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Specifies the maximum angle by which the normal direction at a node can change during smoothing.

class normal_method(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Method in which normal marching direction vectors are determined.

class orient_mesh_object_face_normals(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Enables you to orient the face normals for mesh object boundary zones. Specify the mesh object, region or material point as appropriate, and specify whether walls, baffles or both comprising the prism base zones are to be separated and oriented.
