SpiralCrossShape

A spiral cross shape.

Example

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

-- Create a spiral cross shape

cross = project.Definitions.PeriodicStructures.Shapes:AddSpiralCross(2.0, 1.0, 0.6, 0.2)

Inheritance

The SpiralCrossShape object is derived from the Shape object.

Usage locations

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.)
