BoundaryMeshEdgeCollection

Boundary mesh edges are edges of mesh faces. These edges are not part of the model, but can be useful when applying settings on the edges of mesh faces.

Example

-- See the Wires Collection on a Mesh part as an example

Inheritance

The BoundaryMeshEdgeCollection object is derived from the Object object.

Usage locations

The BoundaryMeshEdgeCollection object can be accessed from the following locations:

Property List

Count
The number of AbstractMeshEdge items in the collection. (Read only number)
Label
The object label. (Read/Write string)
Type
The object type string. (Read only string)

Method List

Contains (label string)
Checks if the collection contains an item with the given label. (Returns a boolean object.)
Delete ()
Deletes the entity.
Duplicate ()
Duplicates the entity. (Returns a Object object.)
GetProperties ()
Returns a table of properties representing the state of the object. The properties table can be used with the SetProperties method to change multiple properties of the object in one step. (Returns a table object.)
Item (index number)
Returns the AbstractMeshEdge for the given index in the collection. (Returns a AbstractMeshEdge object.)
Item (label string)
Returns the AbstractMeshEdge for the given label in the collection. (Returns a AbstractMeshEdge object.)
Items ()
Returns a table of AbstractMeshEdge items. (Returns a UnsupportedType(List of AbstractMeshEdge) object.)
SetProperties (properties Object)
Modifies the state of the object using the provided table of properties. This method is used to modify multiple properties of the object in a single step.
UniqueName (label string)
Generates a unique name base of the provided base name. If the base name already exists in the collection, a digit will be appended until a valid name is generated. (Returns a string object.)

Static Function List

GetDefaultProperties ()
Creates a table containing the default settings to create an object. (Returns a table object.)

Return
table
A table defining the properties.
Item (index number)
Returns the AbstractMeshEdge for the given index in the collection.
Input Parameters
index(number)
The index of the AbstractMeshEdge.

label(string)
The label of the AbstractMeshEdge.
Return
AbstractMeshEdge
The item in the collection
Items ()
Returns a table of AbstractMeshEdge items.
Return
UnsupportedType(List of AbstractMeshEdge)
The list of items in the collection
SetProperties (properties Object)
Modifies the state of the object using the provided table of properties. This method is used to modify multiple properties of the object in a single step.
Input Parameters
properties(Object)
A table of properties defining the new state of the object.
UniqueName (label string)
Generates a unique name base of the provided base name. If the base name already exists in the collection, a digit will be appended until a valid name is generated.
Input Parameters
label(string)
The base name.
Return
string
The generated unique name label for the item.

Static Function Details

GetDefaultProperties ()
