Model.isolateentitybymark#

Model.isolateentitybymark(collection_set, elements_off=False, geometry_off=False, showcomps=False)#

Turns on the display of a collection of entities and turns off the display of all others of the same type.

Parameters:

  • collection_set (CollectionSet) – The set of collections containing possibly multiple type of entities with a display state.

  • elements_off (bool) – This indicates that elements in the specified collectors should not be considered. If not provided, the default is to consider elements in the specified collectors.

  • geometry_off (bool) – This indicates that geometry in the specified collectors should not be considered. If not provided, the default is to consider geometry in the specified collectors.

  • showcomps (bool) – This indicates that components in which elements/geometry are referred will also be shown when you show elements/geometry. If not provided, only specified elements/geometry are shown.

Examples#

Isolate geometry and elements for components with IDs 1 - 3#
import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()

comp_collection = hm.Collection(model, ent.Component,[1,2,3])
collection_set = hm.CollectionSet(model)
collection_set.set(comp_collection)

model.isolateentitybymark(collection_set=collection_set)
Isolate all components and load collectors , consider only elements#
import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()

comp_collection = hm.Collection(model, ent.Component)
loadcols_collection = hm.Collection(model,ent.Loadcol)
collection_set = hm.CollectionSet(model)
collection_set.set(comp_collection)
collection_set.set(loadcols_collection)
