OpenRingShape

A open ring shape.

Example

application = cf.Application.GetInstance()
project = application:NewProject()

-- Create an open ring shape

ring = project.Definitions.PeriodicStructures.Shapes:AddOpenRing(1.5, 1.2, 10.0, 30.0)

Inheritance

The OpenRingShape object is derived from the RingShape object.

The following objects are derived (specialisations) from the OpenRingShape object:

Usage locations

The OpenRingShape object can be accessed from the following locations:

Property List

GapAngle
The angle of the ring opening. (Read/Write ParametricExpression)
InnerRadius
The ring inner radius. (Read/Write ParametricExpression)
Label
The object label. (Read/Write string)
OuterRadius
The ring outer radius. (Read/Write ParametricExpression)
StartAngle
The angle the ring opening starts at. (Read/Write ParametricExpression)
Type
The object type string. (Read only string)

Method List

BuildGeometry ()
Creates the full geometry representation of the shape. (Returns a Geometry 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.)
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.

Static Function List

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

Method Details

BuildGeometry ()
Creates the full geometry representation of the shape.
Return
Geometry
The shape geometry.
Delete ()
Deletes the entity.
Duplicate ()
Duplicates the entity.
