Model.CE_ConvertByMark_new

Model.CE_ConvertByMark_new(collection, source_style, target_style, tolerance, angle, unrealized_flag, combine_within_comp_only, ignore_link=0)

Converts several spot or bolt connectors into a spotline or boltlline.

Parameters:

• collection (Collection) – The collection containing the connector entities to convert.

• source_style (hwString) – The source connector style “spot” or “bolt”.

• target_style (hwString) – The target connector style “spotline” or “boltline”.

• tolerance (double) – The maximum distance between locations.

• angle (double) – The maximum angle between locations to create the line.

• unrealized_flag (unsigned int) –

  0 - Do not unrealize the new connectors

  1 - Unrealize the new connectors

• combine_within_comp_only (unsigned int) –

  0 - Combine connectors across components

  1 - Combine connectors only within the same component

• ignore_link (int) – Reserved for future development.

Example

Combine spot connectors with IDs 101, 102 and 103 to spotline connectors

import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()

model.CE_ConvertByMark_new(
    collection=hm.Collection(model, ent.Connector, [101, 102, 103]),
    source_style="spot",
    target_style="spotline",
    tolerance=15.0,
    angle=10.0,
    unrealized_flag=0,
    combine_within_comp_only=0,
)
