Intersect
An intersect operator.
Example
application = cf.Application.GetInstance() project = application:NewProject() -- Create three cuboid operators to intersect cube1 = project.Contents.Geometry:AddCuboid(cf.Point(0, 0, 0), 1, 1, 1) cube2 = project.Contents.Geometry:AddCuboid(cf.Point(0.5, 0.5, 0.5), 1, 1, 1) cube3 = project.Contents.Geometry:AddCuboid(cf.Point(0.5, 0, 0), 1, 1 ,1) -- Intersect cube1, cube2 and cube3 intersect = project.Contents.Geometry:Intersect({cube1, cube2, cube3})

Method List
- ConvertToPrimitive ()
- Convert the geometry into its primitive base form, returning a new part without the concrete type properties. The reference to the original part will become invalid. (Returns a Geometry object.)
- CopyAndMirror (properties table)
- Apply a copy and mirror using a table defining the properties. (Returns a Object object.)

- Apply a copy and translate using a table defining the properties. (Returns a List of Object object.)
- CopyAndTranslate (from Point, to Point, count number)
- Copy and translate the geometry. (Returns a List of Object object.)
- Delete ()
- Deletes the entity.
- Duplicate ()
- Duplicates the entity. (Returns a Object object.)
- Explode ()
- Explode the geometry into separate surface and edge parts. The new parts represent a snapshot of the geometry at the time it was exploded. (Returns a List of Geometry 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.)
- ReverseFaceNormals ()
- Reverse the geometry face normals.
- ReverseFaceNormals (faces List of Face)
- Reverse the geometry face normals.
- 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.
- UnlinkMesh (unlinkoption UnlinkMeshOptionEnum)
- Unlinks the geometry's associated simulation mesh. (Returns a Mesh object.)
Static Function List
- GetDefaultProperties ()
- Creates a table containing the default settings to create an object. (Returns a table object.)
